HI,
My first Chardonnay is ready from second fermentation, will bottle it this coming weekend.
2 weeks ago we bought and tried a bottle of Chardonnay/Viognier blend for the first time ever. It was fantastic, just the wine type we like. Fruity, crisp and great for the coming summer.
Is it possible if I buy a bottle of Viognier wine to mix it with my home made Chardonnay? If I do what is the typical mix rate when you mix grape types, 50/50 or 70/30...? If this is doable, when do I mix in the store bought Voignier, at the same time that I bottle the home made Chardonnay or do I let the Chardonnay rest for 2 months or so and then mix in the Voignier? If it works I plan to make a Viognier home wine and do larger mix batches.
