I found a red wine variation on caffenol and tried it on some prints today.
The formula is similar to Caffenol C, with wine substituted for the coffee/water portion of the recipe. I used some undrinkable rot-gut homemade wine that someone had given us.
The results are quite similar to Caffenol, though different. Untoned, the prints have a bluish tint and tend to be lower in contrast than my standard Caffenol prints.

[h=5]400 ml wine
40 gr Soda
10gr vit.c[/h]As with my Caffenol, for slow papers, such as Ilford Art 300, I add about 50 ml of depleted paper developer to overcome the development threshold.
Cheers,
Tom
