Racked my amarone today,and to my surprise there was a layer on the bottom of the carboy..i thought it was sediment...but NO!...it was a fine layer of diamonds, after i broke them up,they where like thick paint chips....made my day!..my half gallon top off jug had them also....i put the wine in my unheated garage for about 2 and a half months.....tested the so2 levels and it was 44ppm so i didn`t add anything.... so i finished with 1 and a half teaspoons of grand cru tannins and 1 french medium plus oak spiral... before the additions,it tasted great....i think i`m gonna start another one of these bad boys....
