Hello! I am new to this whole wine making extravaganza.
I have made the big purchases of the premier starter package, along with extra carboy, oak spirals, extra cleaning supplies and potasium metasulfite, etc. Also, since it seems that everyone HAS to know on these forums
, I have order the MM Masters All-Juice Granbarolo and Valle del Sol kits.
I am also wondering, from the experienced wine makers out there, what are the tricks and tips that anyone can give to help make the best wine possible from these kits? I am planning on bulk aging, adding a bit of oak, possibly fermenting a bit more than suggested - hoping to increase the depth of flavor. Also, if I am able, to age in the bottle more than the minimum (not sure if that will happen, but we can always hope). So please feel free to help with any tips you may have.
