Default Walnut leaf wine body

I am planning on makeing a walnut leaf wine using the recipie from
Jack Keller's site. The question I have is will this wine have a thin
body? I am concerned because the recipie looks basically like a sugar
wash with leaves for flavor.

What would you think gives the wine body? The main sugar source is
demerara (raw cane) sugar, which is not availibe here. I was goig to
substitute "sugar in the raw", or if I can find it turbinado sugar,
for this. In addition there is a lb of honey per gallon.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
