 Excellent Entry Level Wine KitDec 05, 2009
By L. P. Quinn
A very nice wine kit for the price. Makes a very enjoyable white wine. With kits in this price range (and perhaps all wine kits in general), the white wines tend to be ready to drink earlier and are closer to their commercial counterparts. As far as one viewer's complaint of it not including the necessary equipment ... c'mon. When you buy a brownie mix do you expect the pan to be included? It's got all the ingredients you need to make 6 gallons of wine. If you like white Italian wines this kit will make a nice table wine for less then $2 a bottle.

First time was a charm!!May 13, 2010
By Jezabel
I am new to the wine making hobby and I really enjoyed these kits. I had a Mother's Day party and the wine was the hit. Everyone wanted a bottle to take home. Which was great, that was an easy inexpensive gift for lots of people. The price is unbelievable, and if you are a casual drinker, then you will never know the difference between this an a 10.00 bottle. I let it ferment a little longer, due to inexperience. I also added some sugar because it was drier than I liked. I boiled the sugar in water then slowly added it to the wine batch a little at a time, till I got the flavor I liked. Then I let is sit a few more weeks. It was great and easy. I am ordering two more today. Alcohol content was kinda high, but that turned out to be a good thing. It taste best with a little chill on it.

AWESOME!!!!!Mar 05, 2010

I had been looking for a couple weeks for a Mascato wine making kit and when I found this one I was cautous because it was so cheap, but I purchased it anyway. The wine is now made and bottled but I got to sample it before it was bottled and it was DELICOUS!!!! I loved it and I do plan on buying more for sure. Thanks Amazon for a great price!!!!!

Fab MoscatoMay 06, 2011
By Jwine-O
When I read the bad reviews it made me leary to do this wine kit, but I said what the hay for 45 bucks you can always make mistakes.
So the kit came in the mail and I was a little shocked. Just a few things came in and I was wondering if I was missing some stuff. After looking around the net I found that was all that was needed.
So I read the instructions and they were pretty good but I am visual person. So I found some videos and it looked really simple. I was wrong. It was super simple. The instructions have everything you need.
I really liked the tips at the end. So I got my stuff going and dumped everything my carboy. I was sickened that it only took 30 mins. I was hoping for a 4 hour ordeal. Ohh well.
So after the primary fermentation it was time to move to secondary. I always wondered why the 2nd. Well I learned why and it made me smarter. I have this wine and it is cloudy as all get out. I degassed my wine and wondered if this was really going to clear.
Keeping the faith I added the last ingredients and put it in my fermentation fridge and set the temp to the low required side. After a few days that puppy was clear as water with a little color. I was amazed. So now it is close to the end and I am ready to bottle.
So my wife wants a sweet moscato. So we taste it and it is dry. So I pull 1 gallon out to sweeten to a point that we like without having to do the whole batch. We come to an agreement and decide to sweet just enough because they say it will get sweeter as it ages. So I make s simple syrup and get the wine sweetened. After all is done I still have ¾ of a gallon bottle of un sweetened wine. I go ahead and bottle that because I am interested in how sweet it really gets as it mellows out. So when the wine is young it has a little bit of hee haw. But it has since mellowed and is fabulous. We have a couple of commercial wines and I think I like mine the best. We will do a blind wine test to see who wins.
All in all a great wine kit. Make sure you have the tools. 2 - 6 gallon carboy, long handled (24 inches min) stirring device. A degassing whip (makes the degassing easy and fast) Corker, turkey baster (to pull samples) and bottles. A dedicated fridge to make sure the fermentation temp and the clearing temp is right on. That's it folks. In a month you will have a young wine with some great characteristics. In a month more this wine should be really really yummy.

Easy wine kitJan 27, 2010
By Reggie Beam

I got a wine making equipment kit for Christmas and couldn't wait to make some wine. After browsing for hours, I came across the Vino Italiano kits. I was surprised at the price and what was included. I purchased the Moscato kit and have made it. It's not bottled yet, so I'm not sure how it tastes. The instructions are very easy to follow. As long as you have the proper equipment to ferment and bottle the wine, these kits are a breeze. I can't wait to taste it. I will surely purchase another variety! Can't beat the price! And free shipping, Are you kiddin' me?! Buy some now!
