Great wife pleaser

Review by Bill Volz on 1/27/2012

I have brewed this kit many times and the results have been consistent and excellent. Will continue to buy.

Nice bodied wine

Review by Shaun on 1/25/2012

Followed directions that came with the kit. Tested a bottle after 7 months of aging and surprisingly I had something similar to red wine champagne lol. Nothing wrong with the kit, I should have taken a hydrometer reading however. I bottled the wine in Grolsh swing cap bottles so it's very easy to Depressurize the wine here and there. Once I got the wine to smooth out it was fantastic. Nice thick legs, high alcohol content and smooth with good flavor. Would certainly buy this again.

Yummy

I bought this kit with the intent to bulk age it for at least a year. After that year, I bottled it. I had 24 bottles. This Merlot was the best Merlot that I have ever had. I was really impressed. I would describe it as medium body with hints of blackberry and dark chocolate. I bought this kit after hearing how good it was from a friend of mine. I brew beer also. All of my carboys were 5 gallons. So with the price and size, this was the perfect kit.

Merlot Kit

Review by RCH on 5/8/2010

Pros: As with all the William's wine kits, this is easy to make. No need to add anything other than what comes in the kit. I have made wines from other name brand concentrates and kits that I have had to add sugar, acid, etc., and still get a wine that is not as good as this. I have never had a problem with any William's wine kit. No hazing, no off flavors. It’s all been good.

Be patient and this will be good wine

Pros: This kit was our very first wine making experience and we found it easy and fun. Bought the first kit two years ago and just started drinking the wine last month. It is quite nice. Buying another kit today.
