This being my first time with Oak Barrels what am I looking for and how long would I leave it the barrels . I guess what am I suppose be looking for ?? Maurice |

if you have plenty of spare time, a year or two or 3 you would not be
disappointed....longer the better if you can stand to wait....I can taste it all the way down here in ./TX. I left a strawberry for 8 months in a 5 gal oak , people said it would not be worth drinking,,,,,,as usual, most people or either stupid or don't know what they are talking about......time in a cask makes any wine better....Donny "Maurice Hamling" wrote in message news:h2MNf.797877$x96.482826@attbi_s72...
