Last night was Wine No2 from the tutorial, very fresh and fruity, light style wine, easy drinker......
this was one I had "tweaked" for entry into a competition, it had some glycerene (for body and mouthfeel) oenocyannine (for extra colour) and sorbitol (for extra sweetness) added, after a couple of glasses were gone from the bottle I blended a little cab into it (from a teeny sample bottle) it did wonders for it, adding some pepper tones, and roundness, really firmed the wine up (tannnin additions I expect being the major component)...although it did produce a slightly bitter finishN.G.W.B.J.

was it any good?
details details
tonight for me was a wine No1 that i added glycerene and artificial sweetener to........
did it for a comp (won nothing with it)....it merely needed more time, quite smooth now, and rounded, but if im honest, a little cloyingN.G.W.B.J.

I drank a glass, dumped the rest, and opened a 2005 Tablas Creek Rhone-style blend. Now that one was good.Steve

Tonight, I have a glass of cold home made sparkling wine!
Well, It's 2 large glasses, from a 500ml beer bottle. It was the last bit out of the carboy when I bottle the sparkly. It's had 2 weeks in the warm to 'work' transferred the proper bottles outside this afternoon, and this one has been upside down for the 2 weeks got put in the freezer!
It isn't totally clear, but it has lots of fizz
