Default a question about when to fine

It is quite possible that the sugar has all been used and a malolactic
fermentation of acid is occuring.
Check the wine for residual sugar with benedicts solution.
If you get only a slight reaction with benedicts a malolactic
fermentation is probable. This can be stopped by quite a small SO2
addition.
