Got a question, I made some peach and muscadine wine back in late December
early January I believe it was. I added a little bit more sulfite than I usually do. I head that peach oxidizes easily so I though I would add a little more sulfite for added protection. Now the wine have a funny flavor. I had posed about this months ago and got some feed back that it could potentially be that I have made stopper out of champagne corks because I couldn't find stoppers the correct size. Shortly after that I was cleaning a jug with a sulfite solutions and for what ever reason took a whiff out of the jug and it hit me that that was the same smell as the wine had. So my question is... I am pretty sure that I put too much sulfite in my wine, will it ever dissipate? Or will it always have an off flavor? Is there anything I can do to treat it. I opened a bottle just to taste it, about a month ago. It still had that funny flavor that it did when I bottled it. Any help would be appreciated. David |
