Started with 6 US gal. BOLERO sterile grape must on December 14 2003. Added
about 3 oz of oak total during primary and secondary. Started w/ SG of
1.090 ended w SP 1.000.
Bulk aging in glass car boy.

It tastes very too berry almost like a popsicle- very very berry tasting.
Would like more oak and tannin. Can I improve the taste at this stage? Worse
wine I've ever made (batch #20).

If you want more oak or tannin or both then add them. While some will argue
that it is better to adjust and add at the start, it does not hurt to adjust
at the end. I just added some oak to a wine that has been in bulk aging for
2 years. That may be stretching it but hey, it is my hobby and I will make
it the way I like it!
