Just bottled a gallon of old orchard purple grape wine today. Got 4 bottles out of it with enough left over for. Some tasting. Me likey. A little tart but not bad. Like a cheap merlot. I choose to not back sweeten. I see a 6 gallon batch in the near future.
 
Its young, a lil time spent in the bottle it will be perfect I like to age mine in the carboy or gal jug the only downfall to that is with a gal jug it's to easy to pour a glass then another glass etc etc :slp
 
I'm gonna let it sit till the 4th of July. I'm gonna hide a bottle for 1 year also and see how it is then.
 
I have mad this wine,not bad.I use 1gal of juice,(no Water) 2lbs of sugar,1tsp of Acid blend,1/2 tsp of yeast nutrient,1/8 tsp tannin,1/2 yeast eng., RC 212 yeast.
