Add 1 teaspoon of yeast and mix thoroughly.
Transfer juice to glass jugs and fill 2/3 full.
Attach a fermentation lock to each jug.
After sediment settles, which will take about 5 to 6 days, siphon off the sediment from the wine in to glass jugs.
Siphon again when sediment accumulates. This may need to be done three to four times.
