So i just opened a bottle of prickly pear wine that i have been aging for about 6 months and it tasted good perhaps a little sweet but it was my first attempt. i followed the reciepe on jack keller's website (http://winemaking.jackkeller.net/prickly.asp). however the problem is that it had a nasty smell that was a little hard to get over, some people described it as being ether like and some others said it smelled like cat urine. I'm about to try another batch of this i already have the fruit can anybody tell me some possible reasons for the off smell?
