I'm experimenting with a cider kit which contained enough liquid apple juice concentrate to make 6 gallons of hard cider.
I cut the dilution in half to make 3 gallons of ~10% apple wine and will be fortifying with brandy.
Obviously, the concentrate has fermented out too dry for a port so I intend to back sweeten with frozen apple juice concentrate (after sorbating, of course). I have limited wine making experience and zero back sweetening experience.
Can anyone offer some approximations or starting points?
Thanks!
