I have grape juice from store.

Maybe if I covered it well and let it sit for a couple of days, would that work?
Answers:
You can make wine out of any kind of sweetened juice. What you need to do is to pour it into a slightly larger container, add some WINE making yeast to it, cover the larger jar with a cover but do not screw it on tight. You need to allow the gases of fermentation to esacpe. Set it in a warm spot, out of direct sunlight and let it ferment for about 4 to 6 weeks. When all the foam is gone off of the top and if you open it you get a nice soft wine smell from it, then it's ready for decantering into bottles which CAN be closed tightly. Make sure you clean the bottles, thoroughly and label them with the type of wine and the date made. Let the wine "age" for abot a month and it'll be ready to drink. Enjoy in moderation.
What Minnesota_cold said about having a grape juice base is incorrect. I make MY wines with just the juice of whichever fruit I'm using and add an eual amount of water with sugar added to it to thin it down (two cups of sugar to a gallon of warm water, mixed until the sugar is all dissolved).
