Brix 19.6. Ph 3.32. TA.88

Should I add some sugar to bring brix up?

Should in put it thru MLF? Maybe to bring acid down a bit???

Was thinking of using VL3 yeast....

Thx
 
Are you sure it wasn't pre-inoculated with yeast? No MLF by any means. Have you had Sauvignon Blanc? It is known and prized for its zingy acid that almost explodes in your mouth.
 
It is different than a juice bucket. It's fresh grapes, crushed and destemmed, then they press the whites, then freeze. Nothing else added except for a little sulphite.
 
Yeast selection sounds OK, if you want to bump the ABV a little OK as it does seem pretty low unless it has started fermenting via wild yeast.
