[Growwine] WHite Blend

[Jim Lloyd]

Last year, I made a white blend of approx 20 % Swenson White & 80 % Prairie Star. Crushed and pressed the same day. Bx was around 18 - 20 for the blend. Added sugar and sulphite and yeasted. Fermentation went well, but yielded a very orange cloudy brew. No ML. 

Fining with gelatin dropped the cloudiness and a lot of the colour, but there still remained an orange hue. As well, the wine was bitter. On the nose and in the taste, you can sense the astringency. 

Any ideas on how to further clean this up  ???
