Hey guys, so we brewed up 3 gallons of blackberry wine last august, fermented to dry then degassed and bottled 18 beautiful bottles of loveliness.
About a month ago I noticed one of the bottles was pushing its cork out of the bottle, so obviously we had to drink that one... It was a lovely sparkling pink wine!
Because it was so good (although young), we've been steadily making our way through the rest of the stock of bottles (all except 2 were fizzy) until tonight when one actually popped its cork and wasted itself on the floor
So, we're finishing the last few bottles tonight (rather than waste it), but wondered what on earth caused this... And how can we do it again with this year's crop?
