I've had 2 3/4 gallons of pumpkin wine outside that I started about the
second week in October. It was only out about 6 days, dropping to 18
degrees at the coldest. I just racked it off a thin layer of sediment
today and have a lovely clear yellow-golden nectar.
I tried to get a close-up of one bottle. Its label was put behind</span> the bottle and is clearly visible!
The alcohol is around 14%, a little noticeable, but acid TA is right
where it should be at 5.75 and the wine is very smooth. After aging, I
think (hope, hope) it will be a delight in reasonable moderation.
