Recipe for homemade raspberry wine — semi-sweet
Preparation:
Gently crush the raspberries and place them in a demijohn (or fermentation vessel), add approx. 1 L of water at 40°C and Pektoenzym. After 24 hours, press out the juice released by the raspberries (with a fruit press or by hand using cheesecloth for straining). To the pressed juice add the cooled sugar syrup (1.5 kg of sugar dissolved in 1 L of water) as well as the yeast and nutrient — according to the package instructions. Add 1 L of water. Wait 2 weeks, rack off a portion of the wine, dissolve the remaining 1 kg of sugar in it, and return it to the must. A semi-sweet wine should be at 4°Blg. If the sugar has completely fermented out, the wine can be back-sweetened.
