Hi,
I've recently bottled several wines in which I sweetened before bottling. With all of them I sterile filtered prior to adding the sugar with the 0.5 micron pads. The wine was absolutely crystal clear. I added the sugar to the wine and it still was crystal clear. The bottled wine looked great.
Then the problem. As soon as a few days later a light colored sediment began to appear. After a few weeks now there is practically a 1/16" layer on the bottom of each bottle. If you shake the bottle, it totally clouds the wine! Thankfully, it doesn't stay suspended and it eventually settles back out, but I have about 150 bottles with this problem and it burns me to the core.
What did I do wrong?
