Slightly off smell

[easymoney22]

So I just racked off the primary to the secondary my second batch if wine. It is a strawberry wine. When the wife smelled is she said grapefruit smell. I tasted it and it was harsh and had a little grapefruit/IPA note. The strawberry was there but buried under the GG/IPA. Should I be nervous? Starting SG was 1.08 and racked at .989. I did probably leave in the primary three or four days after fermentation appeared done.

I wouldn’t worry, it should be tart when fully dry. You will need to back sweeten once it clears. Remember to add some potassium sorbate when you back sweeten. You may not to add much simple syrup; just enough to bring out the flavor. Do some bench trials to determine how much to sweeten then add just a tiny bit less; the wine can easily get too sweet.
