MIXED FRESH FRUIT WINE
3 Ib. mixed fresh fruit (black, white and red
currents, raspberries, cherries, gooseberries, strawberries, plums,
whatever is available)
2 1/2 Ib. sugar
7 pints water
Campden tablet
Pectozyme
Nutrient
Pommard or Burgundy yeast
Wash and mash the fruit, removing any stones. Pour on
the boiling water and when cool add a teaspoonful of pectozyme and one
Campden tablet. Next day stir in the sugar, nutrient and active yeast
and ferment for four days, pressing down the fruit cap twice each day.
Strain, press thoroughly and continue the fermentation to dryness. This
