Why Make Wine From A Kit?

March 16th, 2009 by robin in wine making

This is a question we get asked fairly frequently – why make wine from a wine making kit rather than straight from grapes? The short answer is year round fantastic quality results that are reproducible. Vintner’s Circle has so much faith in the wine made in our stores using kits that we guarantee the results.

Wine making kit manufacturers work diligently to choose the ingredients that will create the best end product, i.e. which kind of oak to add, which variety of yeast is the best match for that specific varietal. They are able to obtain juice from vineyards all over the world and select areas with the best quality grapes for the particular variety of wine. They utilize the expertise of the vineyards in pressing the juice to obtain the highest quality ingredients.

It is important to note that not all kits are created equal, but that is a topic for a future article. The bottom line is that a wine kit manufacturer provides a consistent product so you know if you go to make the same wine again your results are repeatable.
