Fruit wine

Fruit wine is a type of wine made from a variety of base ingredients (other than grapes); they may also have additional flavors taken from fruits, flowers, and herbs. This definition is sometimes broadened to include any fermented alcoholic beverage except beer. For historical reasons, mead, cider, and perry are also excluded from the definition of fruit wine.

Production

Fruit wines are usually made from fruits other than grapes, such as plums, cherries, or strawberries. Depending on the fruit base used, certain fruit wines may be stronger than others, and some fruit wines are slightly sparkling, while others are not. The production of fruit wine starts with the selection of the fruit, followed by fermentation and aging process.
