Just wondering about this one.....
Can wines be flavored with "over the counter" flavorings such as Vanilla, mint, or any of the other many extracts?
I work at a food processing plant and have wondered about this for while.
We carry most of the ingredients that are in the wine kits except the yeasts and the juices, but flavorings are abundant and I can get them at our cost.
Most are alcohol based so I didn't no if that was good or bad.....on the surface it sounds like a good way to bring up the flavor of wines if the intended flavor is not where you wanted it.
If it is something to do, it would make the most sense to add the extract after fermentation and before any fining takes place... yes/no/ maybe?
