Started ML fermentation by accident

I'll have to pick your brain for some ideas on the buckets I'll be picking up this fall

A full MLF is almost imperative with the juice buckets. This slows done drinkability by 3 or 4 months. But with a little tweaking (ie; elderberry, oak, f packs, etc) and some adjustments before and after fermentation....you'll easily be able to reproduce that "$40 a bottle" feel.

For $1.50 a bottle.

Quick update, bottle this back in july opened a bottle last week and I was quite impressed. Tastes like many of the high end reds that weren't quite ready at commercial wineries during tastings I've done.

Very full body, no KT, excellent nose and finish...tannins are still very stringent but should mellow out.

Unfortunately the Founder's series is now discontinued, have 27 bottles of this guy and will try not to open another one until christmas time,
