El cheapo red wine

2.83lt Newman's Own Grape Juice (costco (2x2.83lt,6.99))
Gervin GV3 (£1)
1/2 teaspoon young's yeast nutrient
caster sugar to start at 1.065 OG

Thu Jul 9 2009 - 1.065 OG (I might have mucked this up - can't remember)
Sat Jul 11 2009 - 1.065 SG (too early to test, but what the hell - body is strong of grape juice which is to be expected, not concerned)
Mon Jul 20 2009 - 0.994 FG

I thought it finished fast compared to the kit wine. I didn't even move to secondary.
It tastes like alcoholic grape juice and not wine at all.

Added 1/8 tsp of sodium metasulphite
1/4 tsp of potassium sorbate
pinch of malic acid
tiny squirt of lemonjuice

We will see how it goes in a week!

Sat 25 Jul - Still tastes awful. Added 2/3 Bentonite to clear.
