So what are you trying to say? Add oak preferment if you want a cheap
tasting wine?

Jim,

I wouldn't add any preferment. I've done both before and after and I
don't see any difference. The pros don't ferment in oak so why should
you?? Wine is added to barrels after primary ferment is done in
wineries.
