So far so horrific
Racked my crab apple, blueberry, and apricot off their secondary
sediments for some quiet time before racking/clarifying later this
winter.
Blueberry is thin and very tart but hopeful (bouquet and taste-wise).
TA: 6.5
Crab apple / apple tastes like nothing and looks like contaminated
water in a wine glass. TA: 7.5
Apricot tastes nothing at all like apricots. TA: 5.5
All are 60 days old. My first attempt at country wines. Grape wines
are truly heavenly (relatively) at this stage.
Is there any hope or am I just getting really good at washing bottles?
