Hey guys,
I've made a few batches before, but this year is the first time I'm dealing with oxidation. I've got a few different projects going, and one of them is starting to brown a bit, turning from it's intended pink color to more of an orange color. I'll be racking in a couple weeks. Would it be wise to use the oxidized wine to top off the others, or would that ruin them all? I presume oxidation doesn't spread, the way, say, an acetobacter population would, but I've never dealt with this before.
Thanks,
MotS
