Hello,
This is my first time trying to make wine. I am making 15 gallons of merlot in a 60 liter plastic container. I have racked it once. On my next racking I was thinking about splitting it into 3-5 gallon carboys. Adding oak into one and ? (any recommendations) into the other and leave the last one as I started to make it. Would it matter that I am splitting to smaller carboys. Would it hurt the wine? Does this make sense?
Thank,
Bryan
