Just a question. I like Rombauer Chardonnay. Does anyone know if any of the chardonnay wine kits can produce wine as good as that? What are your favorite chardonnay wine kits? I like it oaky and buttery..

thanks for your feedback!
 
The oaky part with a kit is easy to get, add more oak. The buttery part is a bit harder. That comes from Malolactic Fermentation, which is not something you want to try with a kit. You could try doing Sur Lee aging, which involves leaving the wine on the lees longer than normal (weeks to months) and stirring regularly. It might help give it some buttery notes.
 
Thanks for your feedback..i am a newbie so i want to make it simple as possible. Assuming you use kits, what white wine kits do you like the most?
