I have thoroughly enjoyed the several non-grape fruit wines I have made. My wife and I were tasting the Apple Wine and the Blueberry Wine last night while I was stabilizing, and she commented that she likes my apple wine at least as much as her favorite Gewürztraminer.

Mmmmm...mmm...mmm! Yummy! With respect for her tastes, I have to disagree with Laura. I have thoroughly enjoyed the several non-grape fruit wines I have made.
