Default Wine fermentation stuck in carboy?

I started some grape juice wine on 5/1/06. The yeast was lalvin 1122 wetted
on 5/2/06. Starting S.G. was 1.125. Yes, were trying for a Mad Dog 20/20
style wine. We racked to a glass carboy on 5/8 and S.G. was 1.047. Now we
just racked tonight(6/8) and the S.G. is only 1.042! Is this stuck or what?
Should we wet some more 1122 and try to jump start this? or let it go
another month? This is only a gallon, but I would rather save than start
over.

Brian
