Making your own wine is easy at Brew Kettle's automated wine workshop. With our complete selection of popular wine styles, knowledgeable and experienced staff, and fully equipped facility, you are just weeks away from enjoying your first glass.

If you are new to winemaking, a good place to start is our "Guide To Winemaking" page.

Your first step is to choose a wine to make, and we will be pleased to advise you. Starting your batch takes just 5 minutes, as you prepare the juice and start the fermentation. Over the next 4 to 8 weeks we carefully monitor your wine, and we stabilize and filter it just before you return for bottling.

On your second visit you will find that our bottle washing machine, automatic bottle fillers, and power corkers make the job quick and professional. It's almost too easy, some customers tell us! With labels and shrink caps, your bottles will look as impressive as the contents will taste. Cheers!

The Basics: Kits & Prices

Wine kits contain concentrated grape juice, or pure grape juice, or a blend of the two. Generally, kits based on concentrated juice make a lighter flavoured, softer wine that can be consumed soon after bottling. Plan to consume these wines within 18 months.

Kits with a high proportion of pure juice will take longer to make, will benefit from some bottle aging, and will make a wine that is richer and more flavourful. These wines will last 2 or 3 years, depending on the specific kit and wine storage.

All of our wine kits, except as noted, make 23 litres of finished wine, or about 30 (750 ml) bottles.

Prices quoted for on premise winemaking include the kit, the service that we provide, your use of the bottling facility, standard corks, caps, and all taxes. The only extra charges are for labels, bottles, and premium corks.

Limited Availability Kits (2008 Programs)

In the first few months of each year, our suppliers offer some very special products in limited availability releases. Using their best juices and all of their blending skills, the oenologists proudly present these kits as the best the industry has to offer. For 2008 we are again featuring the Selection Limited Edition program and the Cellar Craft Limited Release (2 Mb pdf document) program, both of which have been very popular in past years. This year we will be adding the Cru Select Restricted Quantities (5 MB pdf document) program to offer our customers even more choice for the cellar. If you are interested in any of these wines, please ask us to reserve your kits for you. For further information email us to request our monthly email newsletter that keeps you up to date with all the latest information.
