Hi .. new to this group, I've a question if I may ..
For a number of years I've used concentrates to make a German Riesling or German Riesling type white wine. I like the taste.
Now I use grape juice, both for red and white wine. Problem is, I cant buy grape juice from German Riesling grapes, I can get and do use California Riesling grape juice for my Riesling but as you know it does not have that German type taste.
So .. the question is .. can I add Elderberry flowers or something similar to get a flavor similar to that of the german Rieslings?
If so .. how much do I use?
I got this idea from the recipes I used when making wine from concentrates and they included a bag of the elderberry flowers.
Am I away off base here ..or will this idea work?
