Default Sugar Maple Wine

I'm looking for feedback from anyone who has experience with Maple Wine.
We are sugaring here in NH and have access to plenty of sap and syrup.

I have a little experience. First don't boil the sap down all the way to
sugar stop at syrup (this makes it easier to mix with water. Every syrup
is going to have a slightly different SG so you will want to check the
SG as you add it to the water (if you had a Hydrometer that could
measure the Maple Syrup that would work, but most Hydrometers used in
brewing will not have a scale that will go that high, mine was reading
in the air bulb at the bottom when I made my attempt). Very little in
the way of additives is needed (maybe Tannin, there should be enough
nutrients in the Maple Syrup). I hope that helps.

Must be nice! The only sap I have access to is between the ears.
