Hey there, I am trying to figure out if there are some things missing from my wine kit or the instructions just are not very well written.
I have a Grand Cru International - Italian Barolo Wine Kit
Instructions list what is included in the kit and it lists the chemicals, and then it has an "Also in kit" column with yeast and lots of things they say are optional -
oak
genuwine grape skins
elderflowers
suss reserve
sweetening or finishing blend
dehydrated fruit
The oak and grape skins are the only things in the box from that list.
I was excited about the elderberries because I have wanted to add them to wine as have been reading a lot about their benefits..
Don't know what suss reserve is
Was no F-pack so imagining they just mean I can add wine conditioner after the fact, and assume they just mean add extra fruit for body and flavor if I choose.
Sorry to be so wordy, this is my first kit with grape skins, and second red, and hoped their website would elaborate but doesn't. If elderberries would add a lot to it I can perhaps restrain myself long enough to order some before I start the kit!
