250ml Red Grape Concentrate

Winemakers add concentrated grape juice (or white grape concentrate) to country wines to give the finished wine extra body. The juice is very viscous because producers remove much of the water during concentration. Adding this concentrate will give your wine that extra bit of body to make the wine taste more rounded and fuller, rather than weaker and insipid.

Addition Rates

If you make a country wine, add 250ml per 4.5 litres (1 gallon) of wine. You can always add less if you need, but it is always best to add some rather than not.

You can also add concentrate into any wine that you make – even a kit – to help boost overall body and mouthfeel of the finished wine. This also benefits express wine kits that require added sugar at the start.

How long does it last?

The concentrate comes in a plastic bottle, filled from a larger container. Store it in a fridge to keep it cool and extend its shelf life. However, we would recommend that you use the concentrate within 7 days of purchase, although it will keep longer.
