This is the first year I've had a good Zinfandel crop, the previous two years' grapes succumbed to 'noble rot,' at least that's what I think it was. But this year I applied a fungicide and was rewarded with large, dense clusters. Trouble is, they seem quite ripe... very soft, starting to 'weep,' but the Brix is around 16 or so. Do I dare leave these on the vine longer, or would it be best to crush now and add sugar? A real novice here, any suggestions welcome... and thanks!
