I purchased a Vitners reserve wine kit (Cabernet Franc) 6gal and combined it with 16 pounds of California mountain blossom honey (This stuff is so light in color, and has such a good flavor) I used my usual meadsters blend, yeast nutrient, and some hops. The total batch size is 12 gallons. I pre chilled the grape extract along with some bottled water to about 32 degrees. I then cooked the honey as I normally would, then I comined it all together and pitched, the temp was about 78 degress.
I actually have no idea how this is going to turn out. Have any of you done this before? What were your experiences?
