please convince me everything is fine
I am ready to begin with extended maceration. I am planning to do it
for about 1 week. I have CO2 and will be sealing of the container. I just tasted the wine and it is really dry tasting and tart. The tartness, I am assuming is from the lees suspended in the wine, right? |

Have you checked the pH, TA? It is quite possible that you will get some tartrates coming out of solution so the tartness may disapate somewhat. |
