I've been making wine for several years now. The vineyard I pick my grapes from lost pretty much all the grapes this year due to heavy rains. I was able to pick through them and get enough for a 3 gallon batch. Most the grapes, which I tried not to put in my bucket, were split and had bees sucking the juice out of. It was a hornet nightmare to say the least. Question is, the grapes were not in the best of shape but most of what I picked were whole, intact grapes. I notice a couple very small bugs floating in it as it is 2 days into the ferment.
Question is how realistic is this to turn to vinegar and more importantly how long does it take if it does. Will I know in the next month or so or at least before I bottle or could it take even longer?
