Cellar Craft Kenridge California Grand Red 2013

Anyone drinking this wine? I uncorked my first bottle after 2 yrs, and it's really nice, just not nearly as dry as expected.

I took mine to .995 SG, but it still seems almost off dry. Wondering if anyone else had similar results?

Again...Fantastic wine...just not as dry as I would expect.

I love mine, and I would agree with you on the dryness. I went through quite a bit of mine pretty quickly early on and had to hide what was left from myself. It took a gold medal in the WineMakingTalk Big Bold Red contest last fall.

PS: just checked my notes and I have it finishing at 0.993

Thanks, that makes total sense then. Mine is probably skirting the border between dry and off dry at .995. Regardless, it is a fantastic wine. Gets better with every glass.

I love mine it has gone through amazing changes. My is dry but I think is so fruity I get the perception of sweetness.

I think that's accurate for mine too. This is only the second kit I've done and by far the best. Hope it's not downhill from here!
