We bottled a batch that we thought was done fermenting and stable over a week ago. We had back sweetened it and sorbated it before bottling. It was tasting good at the time of bottling. It was a batch of welches concord grape wine. It was sweetened and sorbated on August 2 and we bottled it on September 20. We tried a bottle of it tonignt and found out that it had started to referment again. We pulled all the bottles and dumped it back into a carboy. I added k-meta and more sorbate. My question is this, what else do I need to do and how long do I need it to sit before rebottling? I haven't checked the sg of it yet, but should I keep checking it and rebottle when it has stayed the same for 3 days in a row? Thankfully we caught it before it became a bottle bomb. Too close for comfort. Thank you for any help you can give.
