    North Carolina Grape Growing

    checked the NC Extension website but the zone map is a little vague to say the least. is there a more detailed zone map that at least shows counties or better yet cities/towns? thanks again

    yep - thanks again. been doing research but sure helps to talk to locals. When you said you were south of Raleigh - how far was that? any thoughts on Holly Springs area for vinifera?

    RJ Spagnols Treating high acid wine

    You could always try seeding your wine with cream of tartar which provides a nucleus for formation of tartrate crystals. Or as an alternative you might consider back sweetening to taste to offset the acidity - don't forget sorbate first however

    Too Much SO2

    happened to me before as well. H2O2 will work and shouldn't cause any adverse problems. not sure why you want/or need your wines to go through MLF anyway unless TA levels are way over 7 mg/l. Use cmason1957 recommendation to use lysozyme which will insure MLB won't do their thing. good luck

    Backsweetening

    I believe that once sorbate has developed a yellowish color it's time to toss it out
