Buying a bottle of wine is usually the preference for most people. We just want to tap into the delicious bite of a Malbec, Merlot or Pinot Noir, or anything that calls to us from the great beyond of the cork or screw top. The world, however, is made for all types and it is important for us to recognize for some the thrill is the chase, or rather the goal is the journey, or whatever — some people want to make their own wine. For those of you who do,there are many options on the market and you will not know which ones work well until you try. If you have some grapes destined to be smashed and fermented, look into one of these kits to give your investment the final push.

Deluxe Wine Making Kit comes with everything you need, including a bucket, but excluding sulfite tablets, and the necessary ingredients for wine.

Cabernet Sauvignon Kit is for those looking to work on a smaller scale with a specific grape. This comes with everything from equipment to sulfites and grape concentrate.

Craft a Brew Wine-Making Kit is another small-batch operation that is a simpler version of the others. It is also comes with a step-by-step instructional booklet.
