I just made my first batch of strawberry wine using a vintners harvest kit, and followed the directions on the side of the can except instead of 7 Lbs of white sugar, I used 5 Lbs of white sugar and 2 Lbs of brown sugar. In addition, I added 12 oz of molassas. I let it ferment for about 1 week in the primary, and 3 weeks in the secondary.
When I racked the wine this afternoon, there was no strawberry flavor at all, only yeast and alcohol. Is this normal? How long will it have to age before any of the strawberry flavor comes through?
Thanks,
Chris.
