An early ripening and productive grape that originated in France and which is now grown widely in many areas including California and Northern Italy. The grape produces a rich fruity non-astringent wine that, because of its softness, is often blended with many of the world's finest Cabernet Sauvignons such as Bordeaux. Characteristics: Firm to soft and slightly fruity. Appropriate Foods: Light red meats and game such as duck.
The user-friendly design ensures a smooth winemaking experience, resulting in 30 bottles of Beaverdale Merlot perfection.Daniel Johnson (9 Nov 2023, 12:19)
Believe you me; if you're paying 5 or 6 quid for Merlot at Tescos then STOP! Make Beverdale Merlot and for about £1.30 a bottle, you'll be drinking a much better, quality wine. NO DOUBT. Best thing I ever did, was to start wine making using Beverdale kits. ABSOLUTLEY BRILLIANT!Ian Lewis (23 Jun 2017, 19:30)
I have made this kit twice and the results have been excellent. An enjoyable wine that I have given to friends who have all enjoyed and informed equal taste and quality to a shop bought wine.Samara Carr (16 Sep 2014, 15:45)
the beaverdale merlot is a superb wine kit spot onmr jolly (21 May 2014, 12:11)
I brew a lot of this, and can certainly recommend it. One word of advice though, leave the packet of oak chippings out of the equation. They cause the resulting wine to have a coarse flavour, but without it you will produce a very smooth tasty red wine.Ken (3 Nov 2011, 06:24)
As normal, first class service, very fast delivery.

Last time I made beer / wine was in the 80’s. Apart from the demijohns I needed all new kit. They have a good selection, good stock and good prices. Nice people too. I’ll be back.Mikey Kohut (21 Oct 2023, 09:38)

Excellent service cannot fault it ,highly recommended.Gerald Tucker (10 Jul 2022, 09:55)
I bought two wine kits and one did not have all the necessary parts, only the grape concentrate. I needed to get this started before we went on holiday, Sam chased it up immediately with the suppliers and I received the missing bits in time to start it before we went away. As always, first class service!!Alan Gaffiney (29 Aug 2024, 14:21)
