It depends. If your only reading was just after the grapes were crushed, then it can change. Not all the grapes are typically broken up yet. When I went to a wine making forum, the professional winemakers stated that the chemistry can change a lot over the first few days as the enzymes breakdown the must. This is one of the benefits of cold soaking. You can measure PH and T/A at the end of cold soak and see if you need to adjust your must a little bit more.
