French Bordeaux Style Blend w/ Grape Skins Wine Kit – Winexpert Private Reserve
Plum, black currant, and red berries with warm spice character, subtle cedar, and chocolate. Smooth and silky from start to finish.
Some people also refer to Bordeaux-style reds as “claret,” an old term that goes back to the wine trade in England. Others use the term “Meritage” (which rhymes with “heritage”), a trademarked name for registered wines that are blended from Bordeaux grape varieties.

Because this recipe includes grape skins that take up more space in your fermenter, we suggest a larger fermenter like the Stainless Steel Sovereign or our plastic 7.9 gallon wine bucket.
