This is a wine kit that claims to take only 7 days. I had to special order and ship it from the UK (http://www.thebrewshop.com).

"BelVino wine kits are based on dried fruit, herbs, and berries. Fermentation and clearing are both extremely fast - your wine will be ready to drink in only 7 days. All BelVino wine kits are very easy to make and you only need to add sugar and water."

Kit Name: BelVino Australian Red (http://www.hambletonbard.com)
Major Ingredients: Dried sloe, elderberries, raisins, oak chips, gooseberries, figs, hibiscus flowers

BelVino Instructions

 

 

Beginning (27-Nov-2005):   Mixed ingredients following the kit instructions.

Day Two (29-Nov-2005):   Took measurements, stirred, and covered.

Day Five (2-Dec-2005):   Took measurements, stirred, and covered.

Day Six (3-Dec-2005):   Put an airlock on the fermentor so I can more easily see if the batch has finished fermentation ... it hasn't.

Day Seven (4-Dec-2005):   Still fermenting. So much for their claim to a seven day wine kit. I'm still hoping this will be done early enough to be given as Christmas gifts.
