Thanks, Ive been looking for a recipe for elderberry wine
Re: Recipe for 2 gallons of elderberry wine.
And if you half all the quantities, it's a recipe for one gallon of wine
And if you're maturing it for that amount of time, you could do away with the grape juice and add another kilo of elderberries (that's for the two gallons).
