Title: Oxidised Ginger Wine
Post by: sub82 on April 20, 2016, 04:07:50 PM
Found an old demijohn of ginger wine with a dried up airlock. Smells completely oxidised - total sherry bomb!

Haven't brought myself to taste it yet but is there any way it could be rescued and used as a sherry?

I doubt it.
It's like thinking "my bread's gone stale, can it be rescued as cake?"
Taste it. See what's going on.
If it's too bad to taste, dump it.
