I want to throw out a question to all of you to see if you can help me. I am very pleased with my red wines. They generally have good balance, texture and nose. My white wines do not.
What I get in the nose of my whites is a slight yeasty aroma. Also, the wines seem to lack the tartness of some of their commercial brethren. Color and mouth are great. Should I try a specific yeast? (I normally use EC 1118 with just about everything). Should I add some acid blend to get a little more tartness?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
