So my LHBS made an error and told me about a Carmel Apple Port that was coming out. So I told them to ship me one when they arrive to them.

Turns out it was a Toasted Carmel Port. Not what I wanted and they did discount it 25%.

I am racking for the first time today. We have made 2 other ports CRP and OCP both way too sweet even though we do like fruit flavored port. So I am wondering:

Do you think I could add apple extract available from Olive Nation to get the apple flavor we really wanted? I am not sure how sweet the toasted carmel port is but if it is like the other 2 ports I think apple extract would be OK.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
