Well, I think I did... I kept adding the so2 titrant and had to draw more than the 5ml required by Vinmetrica instructions... this was a result of trying to bring down my PH (added tartaric a)
The free SO2 for red wine with a 3.8 PH is 80. I had 116. 80 minus 116 = -36!
So the wine does taste off - hard to describe. This is a wine I have tried to salvage (2015) by adjusting the PH/TA. Now I guess what happened is that since the PH went from 4.05 to 3.79 the So2 requirement was lower (I had already added s02 at the 4.05 PH level
So wil this so2 dissipate over time? Will the flavour change? That is the last time this will happen since I now have the Vinmetrica (and didnt when I made this wine)
thoughts??
