Overview
Wine can be made from kits containing grape juice / concentrate, and all the other ingredients you will need. There are kits that yield a quality wine in just 5 days! And there are kits that yield wine of a quality thats is hard to find in the best wine store in Ireland, but take 4 to 6 weeks to make, and improve with age.
Wine can also be made from various fruits, and other plants. "Country wines" tend to be seasonal. Elderflower wine/champaigne is all the rave at the time of writing. In a short few weeks, it will be cider, and others. All these recipes demand a variety of indredients that you must have in stock. Without just one ingredient, the consumer cant make the wine, and you will lose the entire order.
One thing common to all homebrewed wine kits is that they contain less chemicals than commercial wines, and less sulphites in particular.
Kit Brewing Wine Kits
There are hundreds of wine kits, 5 day kits to 6 week kits. And 1.7 Kg concentrate kits, to 20 Kg grape juice kits. And there are 6 bottle kits, and 30 bottle kits. At Home Brew West, we know which kits work for consumers in Ireland. And these are the ones you should stock.
The single most popular kit by far is the Cantina Pinot Grigio, it produces a very drinkable white wine in just 5 days. The most popular quality wine range is the Advintage Moments range. These are superb wines. Other good sellers are the low cost Bards Grape Blends, Magnum and Belvino wine kits. The challenge is to generate repeat business, so its very important to provide a quality kit that keeps your customers homebrewing. And at a price that keeps them coming back to your store.
So we strongly suggest you stock the wine kits in our wine retailer pack; it contains many of the best selling wine kits in Ireland. And we can get them to you at the same pricing that UK stores pay for them. So you can be very competitive, or operate at higher margins, or both.
