Default not framenting!!

I have a 6 gallon bucket of Septic bag Sauv Blanc up. This is not new to
me, I am experienced. But the darn thing won't start fermenting( Sat -
Thursday). Admitt the temp is about 60F, shouldn't be a problem, I have a
different one going beautifully now. Same yeast Premier Cuvee. Same as last
batch, I mixed 2 pks in warm water then added to wine, after 3 days, i took
another pack and just sprinkled it in!! Not much doin". Anyone experience
this or have an explanation? I would hate to loss the batch. FYI, I did add
yeast nutrient and sugar to must at start.
