So I started my first wine about 10 weeks ago, fruit wine; kiwis, grapes, pears and some tamarillos. I bottled a couple of weeks ago had cleared pretty well and is a sort of amber colour. Anyway it has a really strong, smell of rubber reminiscent of a rubber bung, but suspected it could be so2.
As an experiment I added a copper penny to a glass and nothing happened so then i tried dropping a few drops of hydrogen peroxide to the bottle. this morning the colour had changed completely! if you look at my profile pic you'll see the amber wine it was last night and the colour it is today.. what does this mean?? should i throw it or try tasting it??
Thanks in advance, i have had many questions answered here on my journey thus far but this surely merits a bit more action!!
