The rewards and frustrations of home winemaking

First Racking of Chamblaise

061007 1st racking Chamblaise2The Chamblaise is at SG 0.996 today, ready to rack out of the primary fermentation bucket and into a carboy for secondary fermentation.ย  The wine won’t get topped up yet, I’ll leave some space on top so that I can stir in the stabilizing and clearing agents in about 2 weeks.
