@plactagonic I’ve made wine from multiple fruits before, the part with the hops was most interesting to me. That’s what eludes me when reading your post. When, how much, etc!
It is the same as dry hopping in beer. So in primary fermentation for ~week. If you let it for too long it gets grass tones (like bad grass taste).
This one had too much hops (~10g/l) for next time I will add 1-5g/l. As for what variety to choose go for some aromatic hops for dry hopping (it is usually specified in shops/e-shops), I used Summit.
@plactagonic That’s more specific, thank you!
