The addition of a grape skin pack to our premium wine kits enhances not only the body, mouth-feel, tannin and colour of the wine, it does so without increasing the need for extra ageing. These wines drink very well soon after bottling, and will improve with bottle ageing.
Vintners Reserve
4 week wine kits that continue to set the standard by yielding wines of excellent quality, flavour and aroma. The wines on sale this month are Sangiovese (formerly Chianti): firm, dry red wine style made famous by Tuscany. Tannic and robust, this well-structured wine is ripe with flavours of berries and spice. Superb with veal or spicy pasta. And Chamblaise: blended from Chenin Blanc and Colombard grapes, this juice produces a crisp, semi-dry wine, with a clean, refreshing aftertaste. May be enjoyed immediately after bottling. $10 off the regular price.
World Vineyard
4 week wine kits yielding wines of excellent quality, flavour and aroma. This month the wines on sale are Chilean Merlot: originating from the world famous Maipo Valley wine region in Chile, this reputable Merlot is a soft and supple variation with powerful fruit and spicy flavours. Renowned for its ripe cherry character, Merlot is a perfect partner for red meats, lamb, and hearty stews. A must have on those crisp autumn evenings. And Italian Pinot Grigio: the Italians have their own way with the Pinot Gris grape variety, and in the process they create a special magic with it that’s unmatched elsewhere in the wine world. Though dry in character and with a pleasant zip of acidity, this Pinot Grigio shows off a pleasant floral fragrance and tremendous fruit flavours, making it the perfect picnic accompaniment. $15 off the regular price.
