Advice needed for a wine that would keep well for decades

Post by mshergold » Tue Jun 08, 2010 10:23 pm

Several of my friends have young children and I thought it might be nice to produce a wine for them to drink when they turn eighteen. Does anyone have any recipes/ideas for a wine that will keep that long?

Tough to do a wine that would last that long. If you were buying it you would probably go for a port. Not much help but that's just how it is.

Agree, you'll need to fortify it if you want it to last that length of time.

go for some type of mead, i've heard reports of home brewed mead which lasted a good 25 years.
