    Plum wine with smell of port.

    I've been using potassium sorbate post-fermentation. The sherry smell was present during fermentation also.

    Plum wine with smell of port.

    Thanks. I will try again next year and try that. Looking at my notes I didn't use metabisulphite prior to fermentation, so that may be it. If I remember I'll report back!

    Plum wine with smell of port.

    I have made three batches of plum wine, and every time it has smelled and tasted like sherry, quite unlike other wines I have made (apple, grape, persimmon, kiwifruit). Brix 19.5 at start. Added potassium sorbate when transferring to carboy. It isn't unpleasant wine, but I'm not very fond of sherry.
