I brew beer for the most part. Decided to try one of those wine kits. Got a Malbec.
Wine was pretty fruity to start. After about 3 months it got to be very drinkable. Not sure how long its been since I made it, maybe 6 months, and it is starting to get a bit of a vinegar taste to it.
As stated it has been in the keg with beer gas (75% nitro, 25% CO2) on it at VERY low pressure.
Any ideas what went wrong? Should I just wait longer and see where it ends up. We are drinking it very slowly, mostly cuz I dont really drink wine, and my wife doesnt think it is all that great (too fruity to start, now vinegar....), so I'll be able to give an update in another 3 months. Do you ever get a vinegar taste that goes away with further aging?
