SG Wines Classic Sweet White – 30 Bottle

SG Wines Classic Sweet White is another fabulous wine from the SG Wines range. This is a real mouth waterer!

This kit produces 22.5L (30 bottles equivalent) of stunning medium sweet white wine (5 gallon of white wine).

Although it takes around 1 week to finish, we highly recommend leaving this wine for as long as possible for further maturation and to release its more complex flavours and to deepen them further.

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS REQUIRED TO MAKE SG WINES CLASSIC

Included in the kit is a container of concentrated grape juice and sachets of yeast, stabiliser, finings and addback flavours – this improves taste & bouquet. You will need to add additional sugar (approx. 3.5Kg) and also add water.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU NEED TO MAKE SG WINES CLASSIC?

This kit contains all the ingredients you’ll need, but you’ll also need the following equipment:

We recommend using a Vinbrite filter to clear the wine to a professional standard.

What is a Sweet Wine?

Sweet wine is a type of wine that contains a higher level of residual sugar, giving it a noticeably sweet taste. Unlike dry wines, where the yeast ferments most of the sugar into alcohol, sweet wines retain some of the natural grape sugars. In the case of the SG Wines Classic Sweet White, you have a sachet of sweetener to add to the finished wine.

Food Pairing

Sweet wines pair well with:

• Desserts like fruit tarts, chocolate, or creamy puddings

• Spicy dishes, particularly Asian or Indian cuisine

Sweet wines are perfect for those who enjoy fruity, luscious, and rich flavours, and they’re often served as dessert wines or as a contrast to spicy foods.
