Fontana's Italian Sangiovese Wine Kit brings a classic, velvety profile to your kitchen counter. Built for home winemakers, it offers a reliable base and a pathway to custom flavor while delivering a refined aroma and a balanced finish that pairs with everyday meals.

Designed for a 6 gallon batch, this kit yields about 30 bottles in a standard size, giving you a rewarding project with a future you can share. Expect an alcohol content in the 11 to 13 percent range, depending on how you guide fermentation and aging.

What’s inside

• Quality wine base and essential additives form the backbone of the batch
• Brewer’s yeast plus clarifiers such as Bentonite and Kieselsol for clarity and consistency
• Stabilizers including Sulphite and Sorbate help preserve color and aroma during aging
• Chitosan contributes to a smoother mouthfeel; note that equipment and bottles/labels are not included

Each ingredient is chosen to support fermentation, color development, and aroma retention. The base provides a dependable starting point, while the yeast drives fermentation that adds body and depth. Clarifiers and stabilizers help maintain clarity as the wine evolves over time. This approach keeps the process approachable for beginners while offering room for experimentation.

Customize your wine

• Tailor aroma, color, and texture by adding your own flavor components
• Explore oak or berry flavor packs to deepen character and finish
• Option to save money by choosing your preferred flavor path instead of pre-mixed kits

Fontana encourages personalization, so you can shape the wine to suit your palate. Flavor packs provide opportunities to add depth and nuance, while using your own add-ins can help align the final wine with your preferences and shareable moments.
