With 5.3 gallons of concentrate, the Winery Series Zinfandel kit from Finer Wine Kits makes a red with notes of berry, pepper and spice. Made at the Forte ratio in a 100 liter fermenter, it gives you 61.6 liters (76 to 82 bottles) at 13.5 to 15% ABV, and you can choose grape skins at checkout.
The Finer Wine Kits Winery Series is a big leap forward that can raise the level of your wines. You can count on quality, ease, and consistency from each kit. If your winery makes wine from kits, here's why you should choose Finer Wine Kits concentrates - better ingredients and more options.
Your Zinfandel Wine Kit with Fresh Skins Option - Finer Wine Kits Winery Series makes a jammy, rich and robust red wine with a formidable mouthfeel. Enjoy the hints of a berry, pepper and spice bouquet with a dry finish and bold color.
Only fine California grapes go into this Zinfandel Winery Series Finer Wine Kit. The juice is extracted carefully to hold onto the deep, genuine character of the grapes. What you get are pure, strong concentrates ready to make excellent wine. The only things inside are varietal juice and sulfites. That’s it! With no ultra pasteurization, these Finer Wine Kits concentrates taste more complete than the usual shelf stable grape concentrates.
The results speak plainly. We created this line because wineries asked us for it. Those already using it say their wines improved a lot. 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.”
Label Peelers can send you FIDS sheets and ingredient specs on request.

Plan on a 100 liter fermenter for these kits.
Adding Grape Skins and Additive Packs:
Skins and add packs can be added at checkout.
We suggest 3 skin packs for a light bodied wine. Use 6 skin packs for medium body and 9-12 for a big body. The quantity is up to you. Have enough freezer room before ordering more skins than you need.
All the add packs you need can be purchased as well. To help your winery save, the additives are optional; most of you have your own. You can still add them, selected to fit the ABV you want. Each add pack fits the Novello, Prodigy, Artisan and Forte kits.
Vineyard owners can mix these concentrates with their own harvest, and anyone can build an entire wine list from them. Where grapes struggle to grow, these concentrates can make a big difference in the glass. Expect a bigger yield, better tasting wine, and steadier results from batch to batch.
The Finer Wine Kits Winery Series is a major upgrade for any winery producing wine from kits. Put them to work and you'll taste why wineries are switching.
Skipping ultra pasteurization on the concentrates and skins means fresher ingredients, with a little less convenience. Leaving them on a warm shelf will ruin them. Be ready to make it on arrival, or have proper cold storage if you need to wait. Refrigerate the concentrates below 40 degrees. Store skins at temperatures below freezing.

Reviews
Great concentrate
"I'm a repeat buyer of this Zin concentrate. Last year I used it to add to my own Zinfandel grapes and also as a stand-alone wine. I ended up with 4 versions of Zin from all grape to mixed with concentrate to all concentrate and even a version with some fruit additions. All taste great and will be blended and bottled in the next week or so. Color, mouthfeel and aroma is really good and I'd recommend this over any Kit I've tried over the years."
