Yes! Honey Mead. Trying it today!!!
Kassaundra, I believe whatever nutrition not consumed by the yeast will remain in the wine. Here is to you health. :-)
What you are reading is the sugar content or potential alcohol. You should read the wine before the fermentation begins then when it is finished. Take you first reading and subtract your final reading and that is the actual alcohol content. Example start 27% - now 17% = 10% alcohol content. Hope...
Sweet Tea Wine does require nutrient. I add one tablespoon of nutrient per gallon and it takes two weeks to ferment. I set it up to run 11 to 12% which gives you a little warmth without the burn.
