Thanks for all the replies. As for the level of the wine, the first batch I bottled the cork wouldn't go in all the way and i was told that I had to much wine in the bottle, which is why I did it this way. Again learning curve and probably a lot of practice. This batch probably won't last long because I put part of it in a wine on tap bag for a party and my husband likes it so well he won't stop drinking it. It's nice that he likes it because he isn't fond at all of the strawberry Zinfendil and I am not either. Right now I have a Chardonnay and a Riesling going and I am getting ready to make a Gewürztraminer. I would love to make a red but all the reds we have tasted so far remind me of cough syrup. I also have made an Argentinean blend of three whites and Dragons Blood which is all gone and a version of DB but with Tropical fruit. I call it Dragons Gold. Also started another batch of Apple Pie cider to replace the batch I had to scrap. Refermented in the bottle, pretty ugly. I love wine making. And now my Darling husband made me another wine rack so I have to fill it. I actually thinks that's a law in North Carolina....no empty wine racks allowed.
