Today I bottled up some apple wine after stabilizing with some wine conditioner/sweetner as well as adding a little apple juice to increase the flavor a little bit. I had a little left over which I put into a sealed mason jar (for drinking later)!. A little later (3 hours) I noticed that the lid to the mason jar was under pressure so I unscrewed it to relieve the pressure. Next I unscrewed the screw caps on my wine bottles and a little gas came out of them as well. My SG was .997 when I bottled it so I am sure that I have no fermentation going on. Is this a normal thing which happens after wine is racked and then bottled?
