So I need some advice before I do.
Has anyone worked with the Sangiovese (Sutter Ridge) that is available from M&M Wine? This will be my first try at going with just grapes. Will this be a tough product for a beginner to get good results from? Yeast recommendation? Specific ML bact to recommend?
Also, to try and stretch my dollar a little bit further I wanted to make a first run wine with the free run juice and then follow that with attempting a second batch from the remaining must. Both batches would be about 3 gal. I assume I would take the first run, then add water back to the grapes up to 3 gal and attempt to get a second run, rose wine...Anyone have any thoughts or experience trying a second run? Was it worth the time and effort?
Thanks in advance, Paulc
