Jack Keller's website should have everything you need.

Welcome newbie,
If you look through this newsgroup you will see most folks referencing Jack Keller's Winemaking website: http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/ I also reference to these sites: http://winemakermag.com/mrwizard/ http://www.brsquared.org/wine/ http://scorpius.spaceports.com/~good...inerecipes.htm http://www.geocities.com/lumeisenman/ http://homewinery.info/blog/ Good luck, I've never entered into elderberries or currants for wine. But it sounds yummy! -- DAve p.s. with all on the web, I never invested in any books, if some recommends one, suggest buying it used from www.half.com which is owned by ebay and has fixed shipping costs, which I find better than ebay where shipping can be anywhere from free to $40.00. sigh. louisxiv wrote: > Hi there > > Can anyone recommend a good recipe/website/book which will help me create > wine from the elderberries, currants (blue ones from a ribes shrub) and > brambles growing in my Scottish garden? > > thanks in advance > > xiv > > > |

As above, Jack Keller! But, mentioning a Scottish Garden, I would say you
need a copy of C.J.J. Berry's books. Look them up on the web site. I would suggest him as the father of home winemaking. Very instrumental in bringing it to the fore as a hobby. His books are a little dated but his recipes are first rate and in English units which would go well with your garden. His book "130 New Winemaking Recipes" is the only source of wine cartoons I have ever seen. Worth having for that alone.
