Winexpert Classic Altitude White | 30 Bottle Wine Kit

The Winexpert Classic Altitude White Wine Kit is an exciting, aromatic white wine that offers something a little different from traditional white wine varieties. Featuring the distinctive Torrontés grape from high altitude vineyards, this refreshing wine combines fragrant floral aromas with vibrant fruit flavours to create a beautifully balanced, medium bodied white wine.

Expect delicate floral notes complemented by juicy peach, bright citrus, melon and hints of tropical fruit. Its crisp acidity and refreshing finish make it an exceptionally enjoyable wine, perfect for relaxing in the garden, sharing with friends or serving alongside a variety of dishes.

With an approximate alcohol content of 12.5% ABV, Altitude White is a dry, unoaked white wine that allows the natural aromatic character and fresh fruit flavours of the grapes to shine through.

Everything you need to make this delicious wine is included in the kit, apart from water and winemaking equipment. There’s no need to add extra sugar. Simply follow the instructions supplied and enjoy the satisfaction of making your own quality wine at home.

This Winexpert Classic wine kit makes 23 litres (5 gallons) of wine, producing approximately 30 bottles of delicious homemade white wine. Your wine can be ready to bottle in approximately 4 weeks, although allowing it some additional time to mature in the bottle will help its flavours develop further.

The Winexpert Classic range is extremely popular amongst home winemakers, offering an excellent balance of quality, flavour and value. If you’re looking for something a little different from the usual Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, Altitude White is well worth discovering.

What Makes Winexpert Classic Altitude White Special?

Altitude White showcases the distinctive Torrontés grape, a variety particularly associated with Argentina and its high altitude wine growing regions.

Torrontés is renowned for its expressive floral character and aromatic intensity. It produces wonderfully fragrant wines with flavours often reminiscent of peach, citrus, orange blossom and tropical fruit.

The addition of Muscat and Chardonnay brings further aromatic complexity and balance, creating a refreshing white wine with a lovely combination of floral, fruity and citrus characteristics.

Unlike heavily oaked white wines, Altitude White is completely unoaked, allowing the natural freshness of the fruit to take centre stage.

Winexpert Classic Altitude White – Our Tips

For the best results, make sure all your equipment is thoroughly cleaned and sanitised before starting. Follow the winemaking instructions supplied with the kit, paying particular attention to fermentation temperatures and specific gravity readings.

Although your wine can be ready to bottle in approximately four weeks, we recommend allowing it some additional time in the bottle before drinking. This gives the wine an opportunity to settle and develop its full aromatic character.
