Mudd Lite

The 2006 Mudd that Lori and I love so well is 72.6% Merlot, 19.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.4% Blaufrankisch and 1.5% Dornfelder. Blaufrankisch is dark and spicy, Dornfelder dark and plummy and maybe sweet. Well, we can't but either.

But shooting for a 300 lb / 20 to 25 gallon batch of Mudd lite could be:

(a) 7 cases, 252 #, Merlot, 78% - 2 cases, 72 #, Cab. S. 22% (324 #)
or
(b) 6 cases, 216#, Merlot, 75% - 2 cases, 72 #, Cab. S. 25% (288 #)
0r
(c) 5 cases, 180 #, Merlot, 70% - 2 cases, 72 #, Cab. S. 30% (252 #)
or
(d) 8 cases, 252 #, Merlot, 80% - 2 cases, 72 #, Cab. S. 20% (360 #)

or mix and match a share of the Cab. S. for something your friend might have.
