i made nettle wine on sunday. very easy just need a bucket full of young nettle tops, simmer for 45 minutes in a gallon of water with rind of one lemon then strain onto 3lb of sugar and juice of 1 lemon. wait for it to go lukewarm then add yeast. leave for a couple of days to settle down fermenting then siphon to a demijon. bottle and ready to drink after 4-6 weeks.
i will report how it goes. it smelt good, a bit like dandelion and burdock or root beer. recipe is from the little book tommy posted about earlier in the thread
