Sure - let it bulk age under airlock. The CO2 will decrease to levels that
won't result in your wine being fizzy. I don't see a need to specifically
'degas', unless one is trying to get wine in the bottle as fast as possible.
Of course, that's the game with kits and explains why their instructions
specify the procedure.
