hey everybody, i have a red wine that i tried to get unstuck (has unpleasant rs taste) and it didnt work at all. used uv43 w goferm and everything, and it didnt seem to change, but now i think its starting to get volatile acidities in it. help me save it plz. thanks. the wine has le noir (i believe its a french rootstock in an old zin vineyard trained up out of a bush and into more of a vine), zin, alicante, petite syrah, and carignane. 2.5 gallons or so.

Could not agree more. Get yourself a hydrometer and also get a wine thermometer.

You could try warming the wine up and, perhaps, give it a small dose of yeast neutrient.
