Introducing the Finer Wine Kits Winery Series - a revolutionary product that will elevate your wines to new heights. Your kits are not just a product, but a promise of quality, convenience, and consistency. If you are using kits to make wine at your winery, here's why you should switch to Finer Wine Kits concentrates - superior quality and more options.
Your Petite Sirah Wine Kit with Fresh Skins Option - Finer Wine Kits Winery Series are makes a red wine with chewy fruit, round tannins and bold spices. Enjoy the hints of black pepper, blackberry and blueberry. With a licorice bouquet, bold acidity and and dark inky color, it is a formidable red wine.
Your Petite Sirah Winery Series Finer Wine Kit is crafted from the finest California grapes. They undergo 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! Since Finer Wine Kits concentrates are not ultra pasteurized, they have more integral flavor than traditional shelf stable grape juice concentrates.
Don't just take our word for it. This new product exists because wineries came to us. Some have already made the switch and report significant improvement in their wine quality. One customer review states, "Since switching to Finer Wine Kits, our wines have never tasted better. The flavors are more robust, the aromas more enticing. Our customers have noticed the difference too.”

You will need a 100 liter fermenter to make these kits.
Adding Grape Skins and Additive Packs:
When you get to checkout, you will have the option to add skins and add packs.
For the skins, we advise 3 skin packs for a light bodied wine. For medium bodied wines, 6 skin packs and for big bodied wines, 9-12. You will be able to select your desired quantity. If you are buying more skins than you need for this, make sure you have the freezer space to store them.
Additionally, you can purchase all the necessary add packs if you choose. If you own a winery, you have your own additives so we have decided to make these optional for you to extend cost savings. But if you do want the additives, you can select depending on your desired ABV. Add packs are configured for the Novello, Tavola and Forte Kits.
Not only can you use these kits to make all your wine, you can also blend your fresh grapes with these concentrates if you have a vineyard. If you are not in a region with optimal grape cultivation conditions, these concentrates can really bring your wines to the next level. They will not only extend your yield, they will improve the flavor of your wines and offer you more consistent results.
If you own a winery and are using kits to make your wine, the Finer Wine Kits Winery Series is a game changer. Make the switch today and taste the difference.
Because Finer Wine Kits concentrates and skins are not ultra pasteurized, there is a tradeoff between freshness and convenience. They cannot be stored at room temperature. Be prepared to make your kit when it arrives or to properly store it if you cannot. Concentrates must be refrigerated below 40 degrees. Skins must be stored at below freezing temperatures.

OTHER PRODUCTS YOU MIGHT NEED
Variable Steel Tanks
A 100 liter variable steel tank is the ideal fermenter for your Petite Sirah Winery Series Finer Wine Kit. There are larger sizes available as well.
Hoses
Many people reuse their hoses for far too long. Replacing your hoses often is highly recommended with winemaking. Even if you have good sanitation practices, hoses are particularly difficult to keep clean. You do not want to risk a bacterial contamination in your Petite Sirah Wine Kit over something that costs very little to replace.
Corkers
You might be in the market for an additional hand corker. If you don't have a mechanized setup and you are making wine for resale, having more than one is a good thing.
PVC Shrink Capsules
Presentation is just as important as substance. The right color and style of PVC Shrink Capsules for your Petite Sirah Kit can make all the difference.
Pumps and Filters
Larger volume makes pumps a must. If you already have one you might need more filters.
Corks
Winemakers always need more corks. Be sure to read the corker requirements of different corks before you make your selection because some cork sizes do not work with all corkers. If you want to age your Petite Sirah longer corks are preferable.
Bottles
If you have a winery, you always need more bottles. You will need between 70 and 110 bottles for your winery series kit depending on your desired ABV.

DID YOU KNOW
Petite Sirah is often misunderstood to be a lighter grape because of its name. In fact, the only thing petite about it is the actual size of the grape but it packs quite a punch because of its high skin to juice ratio. It is one of the most hardy reds out there.
