Hello everyone. This is my first post and first serious try at winemaking.
I have a 3 gallon batch of muscadine wine started and invite your comments. Please view the attached wine log and recipe. The fermentation seems to have stopped much sooner than I anticipated, but the SG suggests that no sugar is remaining. Wine tastes pretty tart, but sweetening the sample helped a lot. I have not been very satisfied that I obtained an accurate acid measurement, but tried several times. Seems to be 7.2 with starting SG 1.102 and current SG 0.994.
Thanks,
MuskyDine
