Thank you everyone! I do appreciate everyones input because we all have different experiences. I only had 10 pounds of grapes so I didnt want to add five metabisulfite tablets (one for each gallon) so I ended up doing three so hopefully its enough but not too much.This originally started out as a Sun Country concentrate that I planned to add my grapes knowing I wouldnt be harvesting much, then I got some hair-brained idea to top it off with grape juice. I'm kind of worried its going to come out horrible.Anyhow, I added some sugar last night to reach 22 brix and 1.090 OG approx and have added the yeast (4244 wyeast - Italian Red).- how bad is this wine going to be considering my grape juice addition?- I have not tested pH or acidity levels yet. Is it too late to order the kit and test at any point in the future?I do plan to add oak cubes and treat this whole batch as if it were an impressive red blend so any tips out there that this wine could benefit from I would surely be thankful.

Anyhow, I added some sugar last night to reach 22 brix and 1.090 OG approx and have added the yeast (4244 wyeast - Italian Red).
