Collection of rhubarb wine recipes

I have a glut of rhubarb (and that's after giving away as much as is humanely possible!), so it's time to try something new ..... wine.

This post is more a checkpoint for links to recipes found online, and then I'll give it a whirl.

So far I've found ones with:

Ginger
Black tea
Grape juice concentrate

Some say it tastes good young, some say it has to be matured for at least six months.

I have the following items:

Rhubarb
Sugar
Grape juice concentrate
Tea bags
Ginger
Lemons
Yeast nutrient
Yeast
Campden tablets
Demi johns x 2
Fermenting bucket x 1
Length of plastic tubing
Airlock and bung x 2
Siphon
Corks / corker
