Will have another go next year
Update: the Girls have been drinking the last few bottles over the last few weekends - seems to have fermented out a bit better now - and by the state they came rolling into the local pub last week it's probaly closer to a table wine strength and they advise it tasted a lot better.

Note for next year is to leave it a few months before drinking.

Picked a few kilos of elderberrys and blackberrys a couple of weeks ago so having a go at a batch of wine from that. Still bubbling nicely in a brewing container - will put into demijohns one night this week.
