  • Fontana Kit - Chardonnay

    Has anyone ever heard of them?

    I believe they are a Canadian company (ABC Cork?). I've made the Chardonnay, quite nice, not too buttery, but nice.

    ease of making: 10/10
    clarity of instruction: 8/10
    value : 8/10 - I bought it off of ebay.
    flavour: 8/10
    boquet: 8/10 (but I drank it too early)
    Clarity: 10/10
    Color: 9/10 (a bit watery)
    Finish: 8/10
    Equivalent value of shop bought wine: lower end chardonnay

    69/80 = 86%

    I think it could have improved if I had just waited a little bit longer for aging. I would recommend at least a year, as the acid seemed high for the wine, but knowing what I know now, it would have smoothed out a lot had I aged it properly.

    And it was very easy to degas.
