    stuck ferment

    started a batch of peach wine using Red Star premier classic yeast. Starting SG was 1120 after 2 weeks it appears to be stuck at 1050. Is this all it can do or should I restart? also the temp has been 100-110 around here,but wine is in garage so probably only upper 90,s.

    mold in juice
