Hi all,
I am going to start a Cabernet Sauvignon Kit shortly. The kit comes with oak powder. I am going to swap out the powder for Xoakers.
My plan is to ferment as instructed but not use the oak powder in primary (or at all). I plan, though, to bulk age the wine with the xoakers for at least 6 months.
Does this sound good? I’ve never used xoakers before and the package recommends a minimum of 4 months contact time. Has anyone used xoakers before?
Thanks in advance.
