A while back I posed the question as to whether to Oak a batch of my Noble Muscadine. Surprisingly the general consensus was not to. Well after a lot of thought I went a head and did it anyway seeing how I had 15 gallons still in the carboys aging. Anyway on April 9 I added 2 oz of medium French toast oak to 5 gallons. I decided to give it a try so out came the baster and I pulled a sample. I have to say I am not at all disappointed in the decision to oak this. My sg was 1.006 and in my opinion this is amazing and a totally different wine.
I need to sort through my bottle supply then I'll be bottling. I'll let you kow further after I have a larger sample.
