Hi all,
I have a 1 gallon batch of Welchs Concord from frozen concentrate that has been stabilized and sorbated, and has been aging for a few weeks in a gallon jug. I decided to add 1/4 ounce of heavy toasted American oak chips to add a little complexity to the wine. I've heard that aging will improve the taste of this wine, but has anyone had experience adding oak to this wine? Wondering if it will help or hurt the taste.
How long should I leave it on the oak chips? I was going to leave it on the oak for a month. Thanks in advance for any advice.
