Winemaker's Trio Red Wine Kit - RJS En Primeur

Great flavors day of bottling

This was my first RJS kit with grape skins. Be aware, when filling the “grape skin sock”, it can be messy, take your time. I followed instructions and decided to filter before bottling. My last kit didn’t have skins, and had sediment after clearing. I used the Buon Vino filter with 1 micron filter pads and transferred directly into a 6 gal carboy. Read that wine needs to rest for 24hrs after filtering before bottling. We ended up with 30 bottles of wine with enough left in the carboy for 2 test glasses. This wine was really good, and am sure will only get better with aging.

Best red kit I've made

I began wine making about two years ago. I have tried several varieties. We had a good Yakima Valley red, but this Trio is the best by far. I just ordered a second kit!

Excellent wine

Made this trio wine and it’s been about six months and opened a bottle at Thanksgiving dinner and everyone raved about it, it was delicious especially for such a young wine. It will only get better as time goes on. This wine is a WINNER!
