I started my Cellar Craft GSM (International Grenach-Syrah-Mourvedre) kit today. The oak sawdust was a little different. It came with a grape pack. I used the included bag to hold the contents. I may add some oak after fermentation. I read the wine making log and it showed 2 additions of included oak. My kit only had the 1 package.
 
I think that was the 18L LE kit in the log. I've done both - they're very nice wines but the 10/12L did not have the oak cubes with it that the 18L kit did.
 
I racked to secondary. I squeezed all the juice from the grape pack. Nice dark color. Smells great.
 
I finally bottled my 18L GSM kit last week after 15 months in the carboy. Seems like it will be a nice wine after a few (6) months in the bottle.
 
Please let us know on any updates. I was going to buy this one, but I will wait for your notes.
