Ekens Wine Kit gives you up to 30 bottles that are ready to bottle after 3-4 weeks. An affordable and easy-to-make quality wine from Ekens.
Can make wines with different characters depending on cellaring and handling. A young wine gives aromas of citrus, green apples and herbs that go well with mild fish dishes and shellfish. A more matured Chardonnay goes well with dishes such as chicken salad. If the wine has been aged with oak, the wine also gets some roundness with notes of vanilla and coconut, that pairs well with heavier dishes.
Tips for the wine making process and storing:
Adding American oak chips will give the wine a rounder profile with complex notes of caramel, coconut, vanilla and toasted bread. If you wish to add oak chips 3-5 grams of American medium-roasted oak chips per bottle should give a nice flavour profile to the wine. Wine should always be stored in a cool, dark place.
