There are also plastic corks designed for champagne bottles.

Cru select italian Sangiovese so yummy! I have purchased from homebew and continue to do so.

Availability I just heard from My wine kit supplier that mivino Will be available in the US in 6 to 8 weeks .

If I accidentally buy an Oaked Chardonnay kit, would it be a fail if I leave the oak out?

Elizabeth , did you check here? Did you check here? https://www.rjscraftwinemaking.com/mivino-blending/

Has anyone made a sparkling wine from a blanc de noir Pinot kit? If so which one did you use?

One heck of a give away! It's on my wish list.

Thanks. I think that will be my approach.

I've made lots of kits, but never had to worry about acidity. this time I want to make a Chardonnay with the final acidity of .7 -.8. If I test for acidity when I first start the kit, will that number change as the wine ferments and ages?

I have mine in the bottle and even though it is young (4 mos), it is good! And expect it to get even better.

What a fabulous give away for a lucky winemaker.

I think,Lina blanco would be great. If you want it to taste like "champagne" it shouldn't be sweet or oaky.

Thanks. Had not seen this post. May try this next. I wonder if my Sauvignon blanc is too acidic? May go back to Chardonnay. I like the split batch approach.

Thanks. That's similar to what I am doing.
