Response to Wine turned out too dry

from Chris Dehne (mdehne@ccpl.carr.org)
I always test my wine " before it is time", and yes I do add more sugar diretly to the bottles. You may want to check your wine a few days after adding the sugar to see if fermentation has started again. If you want to you can add some yeast nutrient or yeast energizer to the wine at this time to help get it started again. I buy these from Nichols Garden Nursery 514-928-9280. I usually ferment my wine in 5 gallon bottles, but I don't see how the process would change if yours is in smaller bottles. Hope this helps, Chris
