I have a plum wine in my secondary for about a month now. I noticed a very thin film formed on the top of the wine. It's not slimy, just a slightly darker than the wine, transparent film. This is super thin, maybe half a mil.

Any ideas? I'll post pictures in a bit.
 
Well.. I tried it... Its super dry and tastes young but fine. I'm going to hope it was pectin gelling up or something. I added campden tabs just in case.
 
I got something similar with my pecan , mine was oil, I do not thing there is much oil in plums though, did you put anything else it?
 
It wasn't topped off.. Maybe that's my problem.. I just added more juice (concord grape) to top it off and ran it through a filter... Hopefully it turns out.
