Evening all,
Spent the day picking, destemming and crushing 350kg of beautiful Shiraz. Primary is starting tomorrow but I'm wondering how long to leave it on the skins. I found one reference online that I should press it as soon as it reaches 5 degrees brix/plato, but no real reason why. Any ideas or experience?
Cheers!
