Hi there!
Not sure if I'm in the right section, but here goes.
I live in a place with lots of mulberry trees, and within the next couple months we're going to have loads of berries. I would like to make a mulberry wine- not a typical grape wine with mulberries added, but one with mulberry juice as a base and not much else, maybe raspberries or blueberries, if anything. I've heard that finished products involving mulberries tend to lack body, so it's a good idea to add something else as well.
I've made 10 or so batches of cider and a few of mead, but I've got no experience with anything of this sort. How would I go about this?
I guess my main questions are:
Which would make a better addition, blueberries or raspberries?
How would I do this in a way that wouldn't involve waiting ridiculous amounts of time? (I'm used to about a month- when I do cider it's in primary for 2-3 weeks and secondary for one or two.)
Thanks!
Quinn
