Prune Plums and Port Wine Comments Please
My dear neighbor harvested his prune tree yesterday and gave me about
30 pounds (weighed with pits).
This morning i'm smashing and de-pitting them and eating a few and
thinking port with these plums instead of the Petite Syrah I'd planned
for port wine.
So here's a basic plan for 3 gallons of Prune Plum Port:
25 lbs of Prune Plums
1 lbs golden raisins
Priemer Cuvee
Ferement on skins
Add sugar in stages till alcohol level is as far as yeast will take
it.
Add Everclear to 20% as (if) needed.
Sweeten to taste.
Age and bottle.
Commets please as this will be the first time for a port>
TIA
