Review on 🍷 Enhance Your Wine with RJ Spagnol's AJ-E1R7-R72B Wine Conditioner 500ml by Original Mansel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It is an excellent red table wine

This item is missing from many wine recipes. Post-fermentation conditioning and stabilization is an important step in preventing your wine from exploding in the bottle and tasting like craft beer. I recently fermented a 5 gallon batch of red wine. Now it's not the wine you'll be entering the competition; It is made from supermarket grape juice, sugar and wine yeast. When fermentation is complete I add four Camden tablets per gallon to kill the yeast and a bottle of wine conditioner. The result: a red table wine with a touch of sweetness. The conditioner also reduces the harshness or burning that young house wines have. Purists will cringe, but at this point I adjust the sweetness by adding sugar along with the conditioner, but you might like it without too much sweetness. Without the added sweetener, it reminds me of wine from a Pisano jug. Then I put the wine in a bottling bucket and let it sit for a couple of weeks. When bottling, I found that the wine had a pleasant taste at room temperature. This weekend I'm taking the family to spaghetti. A cup of this wine goes into the sauce; another gal will pay a visit. And everyone had a lot of fun.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Is there anything I can add
