Do my homework minions!

OK, time to tap the LJ Hive Mind.

We're doing product design right now and I'm going to do wine for my project. It's going to have a mad scientist Jekyll/Hyde theme. The inspiration was my dad's cranberry wine.

In the mad scientist vein, there won't be any grape wine, it will be wine made from other things. Maybe dandelion wine, strawberry wine, blackberry wine, etc.

Have any of you had a non-grape wine? What was it? Was it good?

I don't care for grape wine much, but love a good fruit wine. Strawberry and raspberry are nice, orange and cherry are delicious, the silver birch wine was too dry for my taste. Blackberry and elderberry are rich and fruity, elderflower is much lighter - often a sparkling wine. Apricot/peach is good. Iain's red jam wine (made from leftover home-made jam) was excellent - very sweet. And I just bought a bottle of black beer and raisin wine, which is rather like drinking treacle.
Not fond of ginger, so I've never tried ginger wine, but it's available. There's more I've not tried, like rhubarb wine, apple etc.
