Stirred the pots
I stirred the syrah tonight, all three containers. Still lots of bubbles coming up, so the MLF is cranking along.
I also tasted a sample from each container. They were all very similar:
- Nose: Mostly oak at this point. I don’t know if that is normal or not, but the oak seemed to be the strongest aroma. The fruitiness seems subdued.
- Taste: Nice wine. The oak seems less noticeable on the taste.I can’t be sure, but I think some of the harshness has gone away, and the wine seems smoother.
