    RJ Spagnols Bulk aging a Winery Super Tuscan

    I do the exact same thing. The last addition is when I bottle. I try to but many times I wasn't able and so we let it sit for another three months until the next addition. That is how I ended up with over 10 kits still ageing.

    Cellar Craft best cab kit

    Yes WE and RJ are much more competitive where those selling CC seem to have fix pricing more or less. It does not affect me. I will not make CC kits. I do not think they are any better than the others. For those of you who do like CC then that is fine too. They are just not for me. I feel...

    WineXpert Selection Speciale Series Ltd - Chocolate Raspberry Port

    I'm glad to hear no one got hurt! I had a couple incidents and now only use Better Bottles. I don't know if they're 'better' but I do know one thing for certain - they're safer. :)

    WineXpert Any thoughts on the new WE World Vineyard Grape Skin kits??

    Yep, the shipping company does well on these kits. I like the grape skin kits very much. It's great for me when I live in Florida for the winters as I get the best of both worlds, cheap kits and cheap shipping. :)

    WineXpert Eclipse Lodi Ranch 11 Cabernet Sauvignon

    Trust me, I am not worried about George. I could care less what he has for sale although I did find it strange that he didn't list the Spagnol's product when it became available. It's not like him to be late on these things. Of course his cost to you is better than the rest. Colorado is a hop...

    WineXpert Argentine Malbec Wine Kit w/ skins

    That's the thing with kits that weigh 50lbs. You usually have to go with the merchant who is closest to your home as shipping is always weight plus distance. Obviously Connecticut is closer to Ohio than Florida. I do not also subscribe to the belief that just because one company is a block from...

    RJ Spagnols Who is ordering Spagnols 2014 RQ Kits?

    Yes, the Petit Verdot should be very nice indeed. I look forward to receiving them.

    WineXpert Eclipse Lodi Ranch 11 Cabernet Sauvignon

    Ya think? So he is letting other merchants grab the market all to themselves so he can methodically advertise them all at the same time. From a business stand point I don't think that is good business at all. Oh well, one thing for certain, we will all find out in time. I was just curious who...

    WineXpert Argentine Malbec Wine Kit w/ skins

    That is a pretty good price; in fact a great price if you want that kit. The rest of their grape skin kits are priced higher than other merchants. I guess they're looking to blow off excess inventory or older inventory perhaps. It's a good deal!

    RJ Spagnols Who is ordering Spagnols 2014 RQ Kits?

    I was just sitting here thinking; no small feat. :) I haven't been able to find many merchants who are selling this so far except one. I ordered a few of the Nero and Petit Verdot which will probably be good. I may order more of the Nero since the Nero Winexpert grape skins kit is being...

    WineXpert Eclipse Lodi Ranch 11 Cabernet Sauvignon

    The Nero kit from Spagnol's won't be released until March of next year but you can pre order them now. Better hurry because the deadline is November 1st. So far there is only one merchant who has them. Haven't been able to find anyone else. They have them for $88. Does anyone else have them? I...

    WineXpert Eclipse Lodi Ranch 11 Cabernet Sauvignon

    I didn't ask but they just happened to mention it so that's why I bought another one. They said that they had like 20 of them and they were selling fast. I love that kit and the wine it makes. I'm looking forward to the Spagnol's RQ Nero kit. Should be equally as good.

    WineXpert Eclipse Lodi Ranch 11 Cabernet Sauvignon

    Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't but I always get 26-28 bottles. I rack to a 5 gallon carboy and drink the rest or just bottle it and give it away so there is one way I lose a few bottles. I do not care because whether it's 26 or 30 bottles doesn't change my lifestyle and it makes it easier...

    WineXpert World Vineyard Austr. Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre 12L Kit w/ Skins

    Yes, I'd like to hear your thoughts. I think these kits are a great buy for their price.
