Diablo rojo

in keeping with my Spanish tour here is a ROJO wine ,when this wine was completed it was a mouthful of taste ,texture and substance,worthy of any cellar and by increasing the abv, it almost has a brandy finish in 1 years time this will be excellent. PHASE TO TWO TO FOLLOW.

Hey Joe,

Was that 21 of cold soak before or after fermentation? In other words, was that a 21 day cold soak or 21 day cold stabilize?

 

[joeswine]

cold soak

21 days cold soak after primary while in the secondary to stabilize at that point the wine was basically still, the primary reason was the high pectin haze content do to the fermentation of a grape FPAC that I made in the primary, this then created more solids in the wine and required just a little more effort to help clear and clear it did,JohnT this is the best white I have ever tasted commercial or home made, bare non.
