Craft refined, expressive reds your way with Cabernet Franc Concentrate 7.0 L from Finer Wine Kits. Designed for experienced winemakers who want complete control over their process, this high-quality juice bladder is crafted from the finest California grapes. It undergoes a meticulous process of extraction, preserving the rich, authentic flavors of the fruit. This results in concentrates that are pure, potent, and primed to produce exceptional wines. Your concentrates contain nothing but the varietal juices and sulfites. That’s it!
As fermentation progresses, you develop a wine that reveals its character in layers. Cabernet Franc is known for its expressive aromatics, offering notes of red currant, raspberry, and dark cherry supported by subtle hints of violet and crushed herbs. Deeper tones of black plum and cassis emerge as the wine matures, adding richness and structure to the mid palate. Gentle accents of cocoa, cedar, and spice add complexity while maintaining clarity of fruit. The finish is dry, structured, and persistent, delivering a full bodied red that balances brightness with depth.
Unlike traditional shelf-stable juice kits, Finer Wine Kits concentrates are not ultra pasteurized, preserving more of the grape’s integral flavor and aromatic complexity. And because we offer just the raw materials, with the option to add unprocessed grape skins and grape seeds, you get maximum flexibility at a lower cost. Whether you're dialing in acidity, oak, or fermentation temperature, this format gives you the freedom to make Cabernet Franc your way.
The 6.75 L bladder comes stored cold and shipped in insulated packaging to protect the integrity of the juice. If you’re looking to make a 6-gallon batch, your starting SG should be 1.090–1.100. This concentrate is also perfect for boosting sugar and structure in low-Brix fresh grapes or light-bodied juice buckets, helping you maximize yield and elevate wine quality.
Important: This is an agricultural product and must be cooked or fermented before consuming. Use immediately upon receipt, or refrigerate at a maximum of 38°F, or freeze. Stir vigorously until completely dissolved before taking a hydrometer reading.
