    Add a pound of dry white oak wood to the wine in the pail. Age half a year in plastic pail with airlock. Or, age in oak wooden barrel. Fortified sherry wine will turn a rich deep golden brown color. Siphon into wine bottles with fresh corks. DO NOT REUSE SCREWCAP BOTTLES. Wine in reused screwcap wine bottles will spoil after a few weeks or months. Enjoy.
