The Kitchen Sink 6 Bottle Shiraz Wine Making Kit is our most complete small-batch winemaking starter kit, giving you everything you need to produce 6 bottles (4.5 litres) of rich, full-bodied homemade Shiraz.
Based on our popular Kitchen Sink Beginner Winemaking Kit, this version replaces the three demijohn wine ingredient packs with a Solomon Grundy Gold 6 Bottle Shiraz Wine Kit, making it the ideal all-in-one solution for producing premium-quality wine from your very first batch.
The included Solomon Grundy Gold Shiraz creates a bold, smooth red wine with flavours of blackberry, plum and black cherry, complemented by hints of black pepper, gentle spice and subtle oak. Full-bodied with a soft finish, it's an excellent choice for pairing with grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes, rich stews and mature cheeses.
Every piece of equipment included has been carefully selected to make the winemaking process simple, enjoyable and repeatable. From fermentation through to bottling, you'll have durable, reusable equipment that will last for many future batches.
Simply add water, follow the step-by-step instructions, and you'll be enjoying your own handcrafted wine in as little as 7 days.
