I ordered a wine kit from Williams Brewing, their malbec, and something seemed a little fishy right from the start. The color just wasn't right. I emailed Williams with a couple pictures (attached) and they agreed that I had somehow received the wrong grape concentrate, because what I have looks like a white wine. They immediately shipped out a replacement kit, because they're awesome like that.
But now I have this mystery wine fermenting. I'm really new to winemaking, so can anyone out there help me figure out what I am going to end up with? Also, does anyone have any tips as to how long the wine should sit in my carboy before going into bottles? Assuming that it's one of the varieties usually sold by Williams, it could be a viognier, riesling, chardonnay, or muscat. Or it could be something completely different. Any thoughts?
