I am a long time brewer just getting into wine making. While I understand from brewing that fermentation is a exothermic process producing heat it seems that even more heat is produced during active wine fermentation. My beer wort will sometimes get 5-6F above ambient temperatures but I have seen my wines at 10F higher than ambient. Just something to keep in mind that the room temp may not be a very good indicator at all as far as must temp is concerned during those first few days. Still not sure how critical it is for wine but for beer 10F is a huge difference!
