I found a reference on the beer side of the site to off flavors and their likely causes, e.g., "wet cardboard taste is almost certainly due to oxidation."
Is anyone aware of a similar reference for meads or wines? My first JAOM + oranges was unpleasant when I racked the other day, but as Fatbloke pointed out, it could be normal. The taste was non-sweet, and I could only describe it as something close to sour and close to vinegary. Goat urine was actually the first comment I made, but I was guessing - No actual knowledge there. That I can recall.
