Non-alcoholic winemaking ingredient kit. This DIY kit contains grape juice and wine yeast and contains no alcohol as sold. You ferment it at home to make your own wine in about 30 days. For home winemakers of legal drinking age.

Elegance in Every Sip. Passion in Every Drop.

Experience the refined charm of a French Chardonnay style wine with this fresh, graceful, and elegant wine kit. Crafted for home winemakers and DIY beverage creators, this style delivers delicate notes of apple, pear, lemon, and citrus, complemented by subtle floral tones and a gentle hint of minerality.

Inspired by classic French Chardonnay regions, this style focuses on balance, freshness, and finesse rather than heavy oak. With bright acidity, a smooth body, and a clean, polished finish, it is an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys a crisp, sophisticated white wine with understated complexity.
