Cali Southern Rhone Concentrate 7.5 L

Cali Southern Rhone Concentrate 7.5 L – Finer Wine Kits

Experience another unique version of a classic French wine—crafted your way. The Cali Southern Rhone blendcombines Grenache, Syrah, and a surprising touch of Moscato for a bold yet lifted interpretation of a Southern Rhône red. Grenache’s strawberry and cherry notes mingle with Syrah’s rich blackberry, pepper, and violets, while Moscato adds a subtle citrus twist that elevates the entire blend. The result is a smooth yet expressive red that’s sure to impress, glass after glass.

Crafted from the finest California grapes, this concentrate undergoes a meticulous extraction process that preserves the authentic, vibrant flavors of the fruit. Unlike ultra-pasteurized concentrates, our juice is cold-stored and minimally processed, delivering superior flavor intensity and integrity. Whether you’re an experienced kit winemaker looking to dial in your own acid balance or someone who already has a full suite of additives on hand, this is your raw material—just juice and sulfites. That’s it.

You can choose to enhance your fermentation with unprocessed grape skins and even whole grape seeds, giving you total control over tannin structure, mouthfeel, and authenticity. These options offer incredible value without waste, since you’re not paying for additives or hardware you don’t need. The 7.5 L bladder is the same size used in our Forte series, making it familiar and easy to work with if you're already making Finer Wine Kits.

This is also a smarter, more sustainable choice for winemakers who want to reduce waste and get only what they’ll use. If you work with fresh grapes or juice buckets, you can even use this concentrate to extend volume, boost sugar levels, or add body and structure to wines that need more punch.

Please note: This is an agricultural product and must be cooked or fermented before consumption. Store cold on arrival or freeze immediately. Juice must be stirred vigorously to fully dissolve before taking any SG readings.
