Hi!
I made my first 6 gallons of Cranberry wine late 2004, it was bottled in September 2005 after following the Jack Keller web site's recipe. As racking occurred - it got lighter and lighter pink. When I bottled it, it was very pink, light pink, but pink. Now after not looking at it for 4 months, today I retrieved a bottle and it is now a beautiful golden with a hint of orange. Is this normal? So I took a 375ml bottle and chilled it, and poured a taste. Not bad, still a little harsh, but much improved from when I bottled it. (It was so harsh I assumed this would be throw away wine in a couple years. smile)I didn't sweeten it, just let it go dry. I target November for the earliest to try again, good thing I bottled a lot of 375's. smile. I am patient and can wait years if need be. smile. Just wondered if anyone else with cranberry wine had it change to this color? thanks. DAve |
