Berries, vanilla and leather aromas make the Reserve Italian Luna Rossa wine kit from Winexpert a rewarding Italian-style project: a dry, full bodied red with heavy oak. Plan on roughly 2 to 9 months of aging after it's made, and expect about 13.5% ABV.
Your Reserve Italian Luna Rossa Wine Kit is a bold, robust, and intensely flavored winemaking kit for the true connoisseur. Brought to you by Winexpert, this 'Big Red' is their most full-bodied red wine offering to date.

Aging Guidelines for This Wine Kit
With the winemaking done, let it rest 2 to 9 months. Time helps the depth and structure of this wine come forward. Time lets the fruit, oak and tannins settle into balance, so your wine drinks more smoothly. Expect full, structured styles to want the later end of the range and lighter ones to come around faster.
Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 11 reviews.

"Just ordered my 96th batch. I guess that speaks for itself. It’s our favorite."
Big Red
"There are many red wine blends out there, but this one is terrific. We've made about 4 kits now and it's become a favorite of ours. In other reviews, when we researched this wine, many people recommended aging 12-18 months after bottling. My wife and I agree with this time period. After 12 months, the Luna Rossa still tastes young (but good). It is noticeably better after 18 months as the character smooths out substantially; and even better at 2 years. The aroma is nearly as good as the taste, you will be able to smell it from a couple feet away. You will find your nose in your glass nearly as often as your desire to taste it. While you can drink it sooner, if you can exercise the patience to wait, this becomes a premium taste for your palate. While the makers "proprietary blend" is of course unknown, we think Merlot may be a primary component as there are some similarities. Highly recommend this wine!!"

"I got this for a present for my dad for Christmas. I can't tell you much about the wine kit, but I do appreciate the fast shipping and getting it there on time for Christmas. My dad had this wine brewing before we left town and even checked out your website and ordered 3 more different boxes :)"
Good solid table wine
"Have made this kit quite a few times because it is a good solid red table wine. Nothing fancy or snobbish, just a very nice pleasant dinner wine that compliments many meal choices."

"one of my favorites this is a good all around red wine- not sweet but my sweet wine drinkers even like it it is hard to keep around-you can drink this right at bottling or age it as directions recommend- the flavor changes each month all good"
