topping off a barrel
I am about to bottle a 50-some gallon barrel of wine.
After cleaning the barrel, I can add about 35 gallons of wine from demijohns that I can use to replace the bottled wine. That would leave me with a huge amount of air in the barrel and that obviously can't work. Any suggestions or should I just abandon the partial barrel aging idea, clean the barrel, fill it with water and sterilizer then wait until next year? Orlando |
