I'm not super happy with the sauce...I'm sure it has to do with the wine that I had used for my brine. The end product has a very strong vinegar hit! It tastes like tabasco's ugly step sister..... Im not a fan of that taste.
 
what would you guys do to cut the vinegar taste??
 
sorry for any neck pain!!

Thanks for the honest assessment.  One guy told me that wine would not affect the flavor, but I still didn't use any.  Any raspberry in the flavor?

I can't say that its the wine because it is my first ferment.  I'm just assuming because if you ferment grapes you get wine.... if you keep it going you get vinegar. (I think that's how it works)  I can't taste the raspberry in the sauce but I can in the powder I made from the tailings.   I used the raspberry because I was told that it would naturally thicken the sauce
