I have the #2 Amazon rack, and this one, which gives more bottle size flexibility. I like them both. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004KM7LGU/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

Thank you! I've bottled mine, it was in the carboy seven weeks after finishing. It was very good at bottling, I'm very happy with it.

Pretty much what we consume. Tough to keep up the cellar with currently drinkable wines vs aging. Once in awhile I still buy commercial wines to ease the strain on my stash.

Is this Rose dry?

I've made two Rose wines. WE Selection Sauvignon Blanc Rose, added fpak upfront so it is completely dry, and WE Selection Pink Pinot Grigio, added fpak at end, so it just slightly off dry. Both very nice.

I would like to make a wine similar to a Gruner Veltliner, but there are no kits of this varietal. Have any if you found any kit which may be similar, even if a few tweaks are needed?

Varis, in the name of science, I "sacrificed" a split of the Voigner and measured the SG, which was at .9985. Good to note that .999 is as sweet as I would ever want any dry white. Cheers!

It seems I didn't measure after the f-Pak either, and now I am curious. I ended fermentation at .992, which is very dry. I am going to take a SG reading when I open a bottle and update this post.

Yes, I did add the f-pack after. I think this gave it a slightly off dry taste, not sweet, but with an added dimension, but definitely not as dry as my other whites. I was hesitant to add it, but everything I read said it was not sweet...just off dry.

Found it and ordered! Excited for it to arrive, thanks for the heads up!

We drink about a bottle a night with dinner and after. This means I must make enough wine to have an aging cellar and not have to buy wine unless I want to try a type before I make it. After two years, I now have enough good wine to drink more of my own, than buy. So, now I buy when I taste a...

I thought I checked there last night, but did not see it. Perhaps there are a couple of places in FL. Will explore further.

I also saw something about those not being available outside of Canada.

I've tried to find this, but can't find a supplier. Where have you seen it for sale?

Bottled mine today, started 8/17/18, finished 9/1/18 at .992 SG. Didn't tweak anything either. Cleared and aged briefly (almost two months) until today and it is awesome! Smooth, mellow, no bite, lovely fragrance. I would never drink such early wines, but had the "dregs" bottle (last one out of...

How long did you bulk age prior to bottling? Mine is in the carboy now.

I did the WE Vintner Reserce Spanish Tempranillo as my first red and it was drinkable quickly, and excellent while still under a year, rave reviews from friends who love Tempranillo. Medium body, hint of tannin and nice oak. By contrast, the WE eclipse kits, made at the same time, almost a year...

Read all the instructions, carefully, if you haven't already. They may have you add some oak at a later stage. I do believe many have made this kit so you could search the name of the wine and find the answer. Or, if you can rename his thread, those who have made thiscwinevmight catch it. Good luck!

I found this description on Fine Vines, but the link to the details did not work. "Medium pink rose' style wine with luscious berry flavors & aromas with a crisp finish."

I would say that the WE Vintners Reserve is a good place to start. I've made the Pinot Grigio and the Spanish Tempranillo, both good early drinkers.
