HOW WINE KITS ARE MADE
Quality makes all the difference. At Mayers we sell only the finest quality wine making kits from this world, There is no reason for us to carry any other brand..

by specifying conditions at harvest (acid, pH, brix, and color) and organoleptic qualities (flavor and aroma). These specifications tend to be very rigid, for although the grapes may change radically from harvest to harvest, the kits must maintain very high levels of consistency, or consumers will be unable to make repeat purchasing decisions. When the grapes are ripe they are harvested and taken to a winery, where they are sulfited and crushed.
After the Quality Control checks are passed, the juices and concentrates are blended into the formulations that make up the different kits in giant blending tanks. When the formulation is finally adjusted and approved the must is pumped through the pasteurizer. The pasteurizer is a type of heat exchanger that rapidly heats and then cools the must , killing yeast and spoilage organisms without burning or caramelizing the must. From there is goes into the bag filler which purges the sterile bags with a double flush of nitrogen, and then fills each bag.
