Making your own wine is a fun, easy & simple process. We here at Creative Grapes want to make your experience unique and stress-free.
All of our wine kits yield 28-30 bottles of wine. All wines produced onsite are made with 100% pure grape juice chosen by you to create exactly what you are looking for. Our wine kits take 4-8 weeks from start to finish.
The production of wine includes all of the juice/juices, all required chemicals and ingredients, service charges, corks, taxes, labels and shrink wraps.
Customers can bring in their own wine bottles or purchase new at the store. An industrial water filter has been installed for all our water sources. Our professional wine equipment is winery grade. The filter we use has 3 grades (coarse, polish & sterilizing). It contains 3 filtering pads to ensure we are clarifying your wine to give it a brilliant finish with a wholesome clean taste. The Electric Fill Jet Bottle Filler has a cascading flow system that can fill a 750mL bottle in 17 seconds. It has a self-priming pump, quick load mechanism to make your bottling experience quick and easy.
