Have my merlot in a carboy, it's only day 25, but I'm planning on keeping it there for at least six months. My plan is to transfer back and forth several times while keeping oak cubes in the infuser with it. My goal is to see just how much of an 'oaky' flavor I can get.- Was this review helpful?

Merlot in my dreamsThis is my first attempt at a wine kit. Everything was well described and the steps are explicit. So far the wine tastes great (before bottling) and I am looking forward to trying it with some age on it. This kit contained charred oak chips which I think improves the syrupy floor of the merlot grape juice, making it a lot more "professional" flavored.- Was this review helpful? Yes (1) No (0)

Excellent MerlotWe don't usually like Merlots because they are typically light-bodied, and we refer heartier reds. But this kit proved to be excellent. Ages very well.- Was this review helpful? Yes (3) No (0)

Make sure to sanitize the long handled spoon. I have done that many times with no problems. But be careful. Don't stir too vigorously or the wine can foam up and overflow, depends on the primary fermenter. I use the 7.5 gallon bucket so I don't have that problem.
