Thank you everyone for your help!!!

I am making a Vintners Reserve Sauvignon Blanc, it is the clearing phase. I forgot about the wine before clearing it for an extra 2 weeks so it sat on the sediment for a while. I stabilized it on 6-18. My local wine store lady sold me a pack of super smoother. It has liquid oak extract in half...

I am making an IM Wildberry Shiraz. It is clearing as we speak. It is my third mist kit. I decided to play with this one so with a little research I mixed in 2 cups of sugar and half of the Flavor pack into the primary for a SG of 1.070. I am bottling next Sunday 6/03 and we shall see. I liked...

I made the blackberry cab and it was very good!!!!

I can't wait to hear how it tastes!! I was feeling a little snobby when I got an Island Mist kit with my origional set up. It is a Blackberry Cab. Well we bottled it on Sunday and we can't stop drinking it. It is so yummy. I will for sure get more of that brand. I will never judge a kit by it's...
