I took a chance; it was the first time I tried a kit wine ( I make mine from fuit etc.). This wine is sooo good my wife and I were constantly testing it before it was finished clarifing. It makes 6 gallons but after all the tasting we only were able to bottle about 4 gallons. This is great fruity tasting and refreshing wine. If you don't want your kit I'll buy it from you. Our stock is running low.

We prefer a sweeter dessert type wine and all the Cornucopia kits we have done (and we have made several) have proven to be to our liking. Sweet wines with very good flavors. We also enjoy the lower alcohol content these kits tend to have and that they don't over power the flavor. If you like a bit more alcohol, it's easy to boost that with a little corn sugar when you start.

Having done a number of kits now, it's hard to beat the price on the Cornucopia kits. Other kits don't include corks, labels and foil wraps and are more expensive. Another bonus for us has been time. The Cornucopia kits are done and ready to bottle well within the 4 week time while "other brand" kits have run longer than the 4 weeks to bottling.

My wife and I made this kit and it is extremely simple to make. We added 2 lbs of dextrose to the primary and aged it for 2 months. I was pleasantly surprised when we tried this on bottling day. It is sweet and fruity, plus it had the ABV that we were hoping for. I highly recommend this kit.

I usually purchase wine kits from the local winery but thought I'd take a chance considering the price difference and boy was I glad I did. The wine is absolutely delicious... I have been making lots of different varieties for my upcoming wedding and will have to buy more of this as it will not make it till the wedding. I am subscribing for sure!!!! The labels are great and you just can't go wrong with the price. I am about to bottle the Moscato and have the Strawberry White Merlot in fermenting right now... Give it a try you will not be disappointed!!!

I bought this kit and am very pleased with the results.

It fermented out to try rather quickly and after adding the F-Pack and finishing the process it turned out really nice and refreshing. It is a rather sweet wine with very fruity notes.

Great Value!!!

this kit was nice to work with. but do not go over 5.25gal or when you put last bag in there not room for it in a 6gal. carboy . i made it at 5.5gal and when i put the sweet bag there was not room for all of it. i think it will be ok.

i have never made a wine before but i have made a lot of beer, do i need to purchase anything else with this or does it include everything i need?

I purchased this wine a while back, directions are great. Only problem I had was opening the bags of concentrate! Very difficult, other than that when bottling the wine the flavor is great! We're waiting about 2 months to really let the flavor set in. Everyone at work wanted some wine, thinking this will have to be purchased again soon for a new batch!

I haven't made this yet, but I am anxiously awaiting to since it sounds like it's going to be so great!
