I have not made a true wine yet. I have done a mead. the reason I asked about Fig wine is I have three fig trees at my home in Mississippi.

I’ll have to check our recipe books & see what they say about figs. We’ve been making wine since about 1999 when we bought our current house. It had 3 apple trees, two pears, a cherry, a plum, a grape vine & a big bank of blackberry brambles. They’ve all made pretty good wine, but we finally decided to branch out - to raspberry, strawberry, marionberry, and even some real wine grapes (pinot noir, chardonnay & golden muscat). It’s definitely fun to do. It took us a while to refine our process, but now we most always end up with a good product.
