    RJ Spagnols Italian Amarone

    I was given over the weekend a rjs kit Italian Amarone from a friend that never used it.It is dated 20101103 which means it is a year out of date.The bag inside the kit is swollen where it is tight inside the box.Do you think it can still be used? or should i throw it out??

    This is my first try @ maiking wine.I just opened the box and read through the instructions.Nothing is said about the two hugarian oak sticks anywhere. I assume that they get added to the primary with the oak chips?
