Ingredients

  • 1 kg Concorde grapes 2.2 lbs
  • 2 tbsp Water
  • 80 ml White dessert wine (I used Gewürztraminer) 1/3 cup
  • 150 g sugar

Instructions

  • Wash the grapes, then pick them all off the stems and place them in a medium-sized pot with the water.
  • Cook the grapes on medium heat for 10 -15 minutes, stirring frequently, until they become soft and start to break up.
  • Add the sugar and cook gently for 2 more minutes.
  • Add the wine and leave the grapes to cook for another 2 or 3 minutes until you cannot smell alcohol boiling off anymore.
  • Take off the heat and leave to cool.
  • When cool, pass the grapes through a mill, or squash them through a colander to remove the skins and seeds.
  • Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • Use an ice-cream maker to churn the mixture into sorbet.
