Welch's White Grape Raspberry Wine


2 - 11.5oz cans of Welch's White Grape Raspberry Concentrate
1¼ lbs of Sugar
2 tsp of Acid Blend
1/8 tsp of Tannin
1 tsp Pectic Enzyme
1 tsp Yeast Nutrient
Enough water to make one gallon
1 pkg of Red Star Cotes Des Blancs Yeast


Starting SG: 1.090


Directions

Bring 1 quart water to boil and dissolve the sugar in the water. Remove from heat and add frozen concentrate. Add additional water to make one gallon and pour into secondary. Add remaining ingredients except yeast. Cover primary and set aside for 12 hours. Add activated wine yeast and recover primary. When active fermentation slows down to an SG reading of 1.020 (about 5 days), rack to secondary (carboy) and fit with airlock. Leave in secondary until wine has completely fermented dry (SG reading of 0.992) around 3 weeks. Rack off of sediment into a clean carboy , top up and refit airlock. Let wine clear and rack again to a clean carboy. After additional 3 months, stabilize with ½ teaspoon dissolved potassium sorbate, sweeten if desired and bottle.

 

This recipe makes one gallon of dry wine.
