Target pH and TA for Peach Wine?

[Boatboy24]

I think I should be aiming for around 3.2 and .65%. Is that about right? Adjust with tartaric acid if needed? Thanks!

Specific numbers will depend on how sweet/dry you're finishing this wine as well.

In general, .65 sounds 'in range', but 3.2 sounds a bit low. But if the wine is fairly sweet, taste should be the guide.

3.2 is a good range for peach---that is what we set our PH for on peach otherwise it will be like dishwater and not very flavorful. We adjust with acid blend. Don't forget to bentonite the primary on the 3rd day.

3.2 is fine as long as you balance it with sweet.
