    I can't really describe it...it wasn't bitter, yeasty or tingly on my tongue. What does raw Cab taste like?

    Newbie needs advice!!

    About 6 months ago I started my first batch wine using a Winepert Selection Original Series Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon Kit. I followed the instructions to the letter and while it was fermenting I noticed a "sulfurish" odor. I was concerned at the time, posted a question and some folks...
