RJ Spagnols RJS kits

[Hypno]

Hello everyone, looking to make at least 3 kits this year and just purchased the RJS Amarone. For those who have done RJS kits did you tweak them or just follow the instructions. I plan on getting two more if anyone has some suggestions. I enjoy bold, dry reds. I have made the amarone before and it wasn’t bad, I just think I played with it too much and it wasn’t bad bulk aging in a very warm area unfortunately. Any tips would be helpful.. thanks

I have made it a few times. I normally add extra tannin in the primary and more oak, but not much else. I do suppose you could count aging for at least six months or a year as a tweak as well, but I do that for everything.
