The correct quality of the glass and colour can enhance the protection of your wine and beer. Thinner bottles and poor colouring have implications for its ability to protect your wine.

Most people simply enjoy their wine and give no thought to what has gone into it to produce the delicious final product. But as a wine kit maker, you know there's more to winemaking than simply crushing grapes and letting them ferment. You add some unexpected things as you make your wine, but even you might be surprised at what those things are actually made of. BUYER BEWARE OF BLOWOUT SALES!

Am I able to reserve 2 boxes of the Chocolate Raspberry Port? Or do I need to come in store to do that? I would pick it up at either the NE or NW location (which ever one is available).
Thanks,
