I have access to some fruit of a Kousa Dogwood tree. I've never heard
of it before but apparently the fruit is edible (I even found a jam
recipe on the web). The owner just discards the fruit, so I want to
take a crack at making wine from it.

Has anyone here ever had any experience making wine with this fruit? I
can't find any mention of it in my wine books or on the web. I've made
wine from a bunch of different fruits, so I won't be flying completely
blind, but any pointers that anyone could supply would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Check Jack Keller's web site. If you do not find anything there, email him.
If anyone knows anything about it, he will.
