Hi Folks,
I bought some of these mini oak barrels from Red Head Barrels (great company, great service, very cool little (and big) barrels). I've been using them for commercial whiskeys and ports and so forth, to add flavor and as a fun addition to my bar. I'm new to wine making, but have been making some fruit wines to get going - Welch's, apple wine, pear wines, DB, etc. Question for you guys -- do you think any of these fruit wines would benefit from some time in a little charred oak barrel? These are 1 liter barrels, fwiw.
Thanks,
JAG
