So my CC Late Harvest Riesling is ready to be bottled any time now, been bulk aging for about 3 months. My wife and I are trying to conceive, so a lot of wine that I am currently making may not be enjoyed for at least a year from now. I would really like a 2ish year shelf life, but I am worried that this may not be possible. Can I add more sulfites (potassium metabisulfate I would imagine) to lengthen the shelf life and if so how much should I be adding to a 6 gallon carboy?? Thanks much (and would I need to add more/less when making a red wine?)
