Default making wine from grape juice....from ASDA.

Hi everyone,
I remember sometime fairly recently someone asking about fermenting
pure grape juice. Well I'm just about to try substituting the normal
concentrated grape juice with ASDAs own brand of drinking juice [1].
I've been moved in this direction by my local wine/beer making
supplier who has stopped stocking the Youngs conc. grape juice in the
250 ml tins where he charged me £2.50 and now has changed to another
supplier and wants to charge me £3.90! Bugger that I thought. So I've
bought the ASDA brand of grape drinking juice having checked the
ingredients label first to make sure there's only juice and nothing
else. It also states the the grapes are from Spain. I've just measured
the S.G. which is 1070 and I'm going to make peach wine with a litre
of ASDA sustituted.
I've just though....why don't I ferment a gallon of ASDAs juice? Five
quid for a gallon of wine? Surely can't be too bad.

Right, I'm off to the kitchen and hopefully I'll have it done before
the England/USA footie match comes on :-)
