My blueberry port has been clearing/aging for the past year in multiple carboys and jugs. I have kept up on my campden tablet additions at every other racking. I arrested its fermentation at around 14% which raised it to 21% (everclear addition) last January.
One thing I neglected to add was some oak chips to get a slight woody flavor/aroma. Is it too late to add oak chips at this point? I haven't decided yet about what I will do, but I hope to leave it in bulk storage at least until it is 18 months old before bottling.
