I just purchased a CC Showcase LOVZ and see they've added an enzyme pack. This must be new. Any idea what it is supposed to do? I use enzymes prior to primary fermentation with fresh grapes to help break down the skins but for this kit the instructions say to add after primary...

<DIV =postcolor id=post-365471>I have a WE Estate NZ Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that is sable and clear but is a golden color. Could it be oxidized? Most Sauvignon Blanc's I've had are a light straw color. I compared the color to a couple commericial bottles and it is a much deeper color. I...

I have an All Juice Merlot that has been bulk aging now for about 4 months that has a very noticable smoky nose to it. I've also got an AJ Caberlot that does not have the same smell. I was hoping it would diminish but it has not after 4 months in a carboy. Anyone experienceanything...

I'm interested in hearing how last year (and the year before) Megiloli kits are coming along and if you are planning to do more this year. Last year I did the Barolo, Rojo Grande and Rojo Intenso. Too early to tell if worth the extra $$ and I'm really debating whether to do more this year...

First, congratulations to George for taking a couple medals at the competition. However, if I'm reading this right, George was the only winner of a Mosti Meglioli wine kit. Hundreds of winners from WineExpert, Cellar Craft, RJS and others but only 1 Meglioli, 3 Bodega Ports and 1 AllJuice medal...

I'm considering buying a Meglioli Cabernet Sauvignon del Veneto to hold until fall when I do a couple batches of Cab and Merlot from fresh fruit and use some of the pressings (maybe 5 lbs. or so) to add to the kit. I'll be using high quality fruit from Napa and thinking I might be able to make a...

Anyone have experience with WE Selection Viognier? I just ordered one for my wife, she wanted a white and I usually do reds. This will be my first white and want something she will enjoy. Thanks, Steve T.

I racked and stabilized my Bodega Port about 10 days ago and it still seems to have a lot of gas. I used a wine whip and really whipped it up good and have used a mitty-vac about 4 times now. It's pulling bubbles each time and won't hold a vacuum for more than 5 minutes. About the same time...

During primary my Meglioli Barolo foamed up like there was no tomorrow. Almost went to the top of a 10gal.container. Is this normal? I also did a Rojo Intensio and have a Rojo Grande in the 3rd day of primary and neither one foamed up like the Barolo. With 3 Meglioli's going, I'mvery...

I received my MM Meglioli Rojo Intenso yesterday and plan to start today. This is the first ofthree I plan to do (the Barolo should be here next week and Rojo Grande in March). This is quite an investment and my first Mosti so I want to be sure I'm doing this right. The process seems quite...
