Anyone make peach wine?

[4-H chicken mom]

My DH and I are newbies at wine making. I have access to a lot of peaches, so I asked about making peach wine. We have googled a lot of recipes, but I would rather find out from experienced wine makers what to do and what not to do,

because if we do something wrong, we won't know untill after peach season is over.

Thanks for any help.

My boyfriend makes delicious homemade wine, I believe it is a family recipe from way back and it is more alcoholic than most peoples wines but it is fantastic, will have to see if I can get him to cough up the recipe

Peach wine is actually one of the more difficult wines. Most hobbyists end up 'cheating' to add the necessary body by adding some white grape juice during the fermentation process.
