Oh, I should mention the starting SG on that Zin which I decided to rack. It started at 1.15. That's my wife's request (honest). She picked out the can of concentrate, she really wanted a pink Zin. As I started making it, she asked me to make it real strong. I asked how strong, she said as storng as I can make it. I told her I could probably get 17 to 18%. I was shooting for a starting SG of 1.13 and using 1116 yeast, but I calculated something wrong and wound up at 1.15. So this stuff is currently at 9.4% ABV when it got stuck.
Also, while it seemed like a great idea last night (around 1am or so) to rack it and clear it and drink soon as a sweet wine, now that I finally got some sleep I'm thinking, wow, that is gonna be some sweet stuff. I mean...dang, that is like a full on sweet grape juice with 9% alcohol in it. Gonna be interesting to say the least.
