I agree -- this is not a failure. It may not be what you wanted, but definitely not a failure.


What to do with it? Cooking wine is the obvious one, along with using it for drinks (mulled wine, Sangria, etc.). Use it for blending -- not for alcohol adjustment, but for flavor.


For future reference, add skin packs, raisins, Zante currants, dried elderberries, or something to give the wine body.


I have FWK Tavola Barbera and Pinot Noir made without skin packs, as I wanted lighter bodied wines. My main batches are seriously heavy duty, but I like variety, so having these on hands gives me that. You may want to consider that, although if this just isn't to your taste, you have the options previously mentioned.
