Has anyone attempted the Summertime Blueberry Wine recipe (page 11) from the

You might take a look at web site
http://www.eckraus.com/home-wine-making-recipes.asp. I think they have
a pretty good list of country wines that work well. Aubrey

This is my first try at blueberry wine, and I currently have two
gallons from that recipe that are about ready to be bottled. At last
racking, from the small sample I had, it looks very promising. Not an
deep blueberry taste, but a good red wine flavor.

Can you post your one gallon recipe? I was going to make a 5 gallon batch
when the blueberries come in season, but might try a one gallon batch from
frozen stock.

Hi

I made a blueberry wine but I believe it was a 2001 winemaker magazine.
I had excellent results and rave reviews, but I only made the one
gallon. It was like a merlot with blueberry hints. I keep meaning to
do a 5 gallon batch or 10 but havent since.

I could dig up the recipe if you would be interested in that.

I would be interested in your recipe Phil. Thanks.

I've got one going right now (8 months old). Followed Stanley
Anderson's recipe to the tee. It's thin. Poor colour compared to a
grape varietal. Taste is promising. My first one.

Yes, I would be interested it the recipe as well. I was planning to make
some from frozen.
Thanks,

Hi everyone

My first post here. I live close to Quebec city where wild blueberries and
chokecherries grow in abondance. I made a 5 gal. batch of blueberry and
chokecherry wine that already taste like a port wine after 8 months in bulk.
I'm surprised and very satisfied at the result. I also made a special
bottle by following one of Jack Keller's tip. I froze some wine to remove
water and mixed the concentrate with wine in order to fortify it. Can't
wait to find out what it'll taste like.

I used 5 lbs of each blueberries and chokecherries (without crushing the
pits), 3 lbs of blue grape (found in grocery store, don't really know how
you call'em in english) and sugared it up to a 1.1 SG

So... can you guys post the recipe? I'm just waiting to start a batch
of wine, and have my own past recipe, but would love to try a new one!

Thanks!
