Hi all,
When we picked and pressed our grapes, I had about 8L left over (above the 85 or so fermenting). I figured we'd use it for grape juice or making jams, I didn't think about using it to back sweeten our wine later (Muscat).
So we boiled it and canned it. I have 8L in mason jars now.
Our Muscat wine itself is done fermenting, and we want to sweeten it up a bit. I'd prefer not to use table sugar.
I'll do a taste test before, but tas anyone ever used boiled juice before? It still tastes sweet, but not sure if there are any long term consequences to using it. If using it isn't a good idea I may get in some Muscat concentrate instead.
Thanks!
