Restricted Quantities 2020 Kit Components
Yeasts in RQ2020 Kits Bourgovin RC212 This yeast was specifically developed in Burgundy, France for red wine fermentations to enhance varietal character by emphasizing ripe berry and fruit aromas. QA23 This yeast Originating from the Vinhos Verde region of Portugal, the QA23 was selected for enhancing the flavors and aromas of grapes utilized in the production of premium white wines. Recommended for styles such as, Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc, Chenin Blanc, Colombard and Semillon, the QA23 produces fresh, fruity and clean wines.
French Oak Wine is aged together with wood to enhance the flavour, aroma and complexity of the wine through the extraction of the substances from the wood into the wine. When compared to American oak, French oak imparts more subtle flavours and firmer, but silkier tannins which is ideal for lighter wines. French oak contributes flavours such as cigar box, cinnamon, and coffee.
American Oak American oak is used by many winemakers for the aromatic sweetness it contributes to the wine. On the palate, American oak provides a tannin structure that accentuates the fruit on the mid palate. While on the nose, it will contribute aromas of vanilla, coconut, dill and moca.
Dried Grape Skins The GenuWine Winery Grape Skins included in our three red wine kits are made through a patented process of gently drying crushed whole grape skins to retain original colour and nutritional integrity . The skins are processed to maximize colour and flavour extractions so that all their goodness can be extracted in a five or six day fermentation period. Grape skins will add smooth tannins, robust colour, and rich aromas to your red wines, making them more complex and fuller-bodied. These bigger, bolder red wines will drink well while young, but the goodness from the skins will also continue to enhance the flavour of the wine when aged.
Premium Labels Showcasing our magnificent RQ20 wine collection with premium, custom designed labels that are likened to labels found in commercial wines. Each wine has its own personality that is representative of the 1920’s era. Our 2020 RQ wines are charming and glamourous!
