Hi all...
My first wine, a 6-bottle Wilko "Cherry" wine kit (and the I use the term cherry under advisement. I've tasted more cherry from a sodding pick&mix sweetie!) is finally done and ready to bottle.
Since it's almost undrinkable right now, and it obviously needs aged a lot, can I just age it in a PET water bottle, instead of putting into bottles?
I sterilised and camden'd the water bottle, and I'm checking now and then to let out any CO2 buildup (very small amount, so either residual fermentation, or possibly just degassing)...
Do I need to do anything else? Or can I just leave it there till it's less...paint-strippery?
