Unknown Additive

Posted by: J Winer, Saturday, August 21, 2010

There is an additive in my Cru Select Port Wine kit in a white bottle. The only label on the bottle is a hand written code on the screw top "p 1/09". Does anyone know what this is for? I'm guessing its a finishing blend, but would like to know for sure.

Thanks.
