This is my second Barbaresco kit; the first is not yet ready to bottle (~80 days since fermentation began), but already tastes very nice for such a young wine. This kit may end up producing better wine than the Amarone. My only qualm is that the labels they ship with the kit say "Barbera". Barbaresco is made from Nebbiolo grapes, not Barbera, so I'm not sure whether this is really Barbaresco or Barbera. Either way it shows promise.This is a good wine kit. The wine is very dry. Tastes somewhere between a Cabernet and a Merlot. The kit has juice, corks, labels, chemicals and capsuls. I bottled a case dry and sweetened the rest. It would have been nice if there was some potassium sorbate included with the chemicals so you could use it if sweetening the wine. Wow what a major difference when sweet. You get more of the fruity taste out of the wine. I am well pleased and looking forward to trying other varieties from this vendor. It would be nice to know the dryness of the wine in the description. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

started kit yesterday , got it in good shape rating is just cause not yet done, one thing to consider any wine maker knows a start gravity of 1.080is very low that means low alchol or watery wine which isnt bad or good its preference must kits start at 1.090 or higher like winexpert a wine starting at 1.080 could at best attain 11.8 abv+++Read Best Reviews of Reserve Du Chateau 6 Week Wine Kit, Italian Barbaresco, 55-Pound Container Here
I just racked this to secondary. I did taste it and it is good and it is dry. Sometimes I like a dry wine so I will probably take a gallon and do a little sweetening with some simple syrup (maybe add a tbsp of orange extract)like a previous poster did.Want Reserve Du Chateau 6 Week Wine Kit, Italian Barbaresco, 55-Pound Container Discount?
I am pleased so far with this wine kit. However I received the wrong labels. Is there anyway I can receive the Barbaresco Labels that I did not receive? (I got Bardolino)
