Well, I bottled it yesterday and had a couple of glasses that wouldn't make up a 6th bottle as usual. Nicely dry, definate taste of Elderflower and lovely colour but not what I was expecting.

Mine tasted very nice but hardly even a hint of banana. Made a second batch which didn't taste of banana at all.

Absolutely delicious. It's a bit like a sherry. I've 2 more demijohns racked in the garage :)

Used the recipe in the link and bottled it after 5 months racked. It's so good I have started another batch today and will do one more tomorrow. https://homebrewanswers.com/parsnip-wine-recipe/

Thank you for posting. I have made two batches so far with a bit more sugar in the last batch which should be nearly ready. I intend to make a third tomorrow. It's a really nice chilled drink. Perfect for BBQ and the summer

Thank you for the info. Possibly too late to add another lemon?

As it is Elderflower season I thought I would have a go. Not made Elderflower wine since the 80s. I'm following this recipe but did not add the extra citric acid and used 225g of sultanas as I had that quantity lying around. Anyone else tried it or have any thoughts? Elderflower wine recipe |...

Thanks for the advice

I made a supermarket fruit juice wine and it has a mass of sediment. I did use some pineapple juice in the mix. Could this be the reason?

Well my 800 sugar got me to 1150 which is pretty dam close. Let's see how it works out. Thanks for the tip :)
