I just finished bottling a gallon batch of watermelon wine and it has
a strong watermelon smell. It always has smelled like that, even after
the rackings. I may be crazy, but I was assuming that odor would go
away after fermentation. Is this normal, or has the batch bit the
dust? It taste ok, I think, but needs some aging for sure. Kind of
made me nauseated, too.
