What is the typical alcohol content of fruit wines compared to grape wines?
Fruit wines typically have an alcohol content similar to that of grape wines, generally ranging between 5% and 15% ABV (alcohol by volume). The exact percentage can vary based on the type of fruit used, the fermentation process, and any additional sugars added during production. Grape wines also usually fall within this range, with most table wines averaging around 11.6% ABV. However, some grape wines, like fortified wines, can have higher alcohol content, up to 20% ABV or more. The fermentation process and the natural sugar content of the fruits largely determine the final alcohol level in both fruit and grape wines.
How should I store my fruit wine?
Store fruit wine in a cool, dark place, ideally at a consistent temperature around 55°F (13°C). Keep bottles on their sides to maintain cork moisture, preventing air from entering and spoiling the wine. Avoid vibrations and direct sunlight to preserve flavor and quality.
