Any wine connoisseurs out there have an opinion on oak taste in wine?
I just ordered a Winexpert, Nappa Valley Stag's Leap District, Merlot kit, that on a scale of 0 to 3, is a 3 on oak intensity. It will have a regular and French oak chips to be added to the primary.
Should I cut back on the amount of chips that are added?
I'll have a lot invested in this batch of wine and don't want it to taste like crap!
