North Star sour cherries make an absolutely stunning wine. Especially if you
let a couple gallons of it bulk-age for a year or two with a cinnamon stick at
the bottom of the carboy.

I've also had spectacular results from apricots, and slightly overripe
Bartlett pears.

I'll let you know in a few months how last year's batch of serviceberry wine
turned out. :-)
