Winexpert Trinity White should be in the ballpark.

RJS Grand Cru French Rose Hasn't been out long, I recently bottled and very pleased with the early bottles, strawberry watermelon elements, but nice and dry with ample acidity. I will likely start another batch asap.

I would be interested, esp the browns

Based on those choices, we have similar tastes. I have Rjs Grand Cru Intl South African Chenin Blanc about to be bottled that is tasting above and beyond my expectations.

Looking to acquire some of this brand cork that I have used in the past, but coming up empty. If anyone knows of a source or has a surplus, I would be most grateful. Thank you JP

I used a can of this in conjunction with the Raspberry Peach Sangria kit, to bump up the body and Abv of that kit that i like as is. Thought blood orange sounded like a good match for the mostly raspberry flavor. Seemed bit harder to clear like this, but additional time and racking did the...

Sorry Joe, but could you clarify which kit you are referring to here?

Really surprised to see the opinions so far, one of my top 2 red kits. I have not done any of the other brands, but very happy with this one and sad to report only 2 bottles left in the cellar. Made a few minor tweaks, no oak chips in primary, bdx yeast, tuscan oak blend post clearing for 6...

Would like to try out a new Italian white this year but have no experience with either, looking for any tasting notes from those that have. Thank you

I can no longer access their site, could someone tell me how they rate that strain for Merlot? TY
