Very low OG on wine kit

Put a Californian Connosoir Merlot into the fermentor yesterday... followed the usual instructions etc but the starting gravity came out at 1058. Far below what the white ones usually are... anyone seen this before?

You need to thoroughly stir the must to get the grape concetrate and the water mixed correctly.
