Simple, easy to drink white wine
This got relatively poor results in a family taste test. It's still one of my favourites in the series, though. Would definitely consider making again—probably in a larger 3/5 gal batch. May consider adding less sweetener in future versions. My last test tasted a bit candy-like.

Has a definite "grocery store grape juice" taste. Otherwise, not much difference than an average red wine (coming from someone who prefers white).
