My husband made some elderberry wine once. Fortunately only he had a glass of it, he was quite poorly, it must have been toxic. That was the end of his wine making venture!

Willow darlin' - it sounds as if he either left it too long on the lees (sediment) or didn't filter it properly to eliminate the yeast germs. If it IS done correctly home-brewed country wines can be both very tasty but also very potent.

Now if I were a preacher Willow I would capitalise on your husbands upset with the Elderberry wine, and bellow out, "Woe betide the drinker of the fruit of the Judas tree, for his belly shall burn like the fires of hell". That would serve as a double warning, stay away from the tree and pack in the drink, a satisfying mornings work from the pulpit.
