I failed stabilizing my lemon wine (skeeter). I had split it into my main carboy and a smaller jug, I bottled a few which didn't fit into the carboy. I opened one last friday after a month and it had a decent carbonation, if I wanted a low carbonated sparkling wine. I've always racked before I stabilized with n/k-meta and sorbate, but didn't this time. Based on my notes I even back sweetened without racking... Oops.
 
Do you think you'll do the low carbonated wine with a different fruit? Turn an Oops into a Plus?
