THE VINE CO QUALITY STORY: “FROM VINEYARD TO GLASS”
Vine Co’s commitment to excellence, and dedication to delivering the highest quality wine making supplies in the home wine making market, has made us the world’s foremost supplier of premium kits. Our careful sourcing of supply, combined with state-of-the-art processing facilities and stringent quality control procedures continue to set the industry standard.
Our dedication to product excellence began over 20 years ago when we created the first modern winemaking kit. It continues today as we source high quality grape juice and concentrate from the world’s best wine regions. We strive for quality at every level in our operation, seeking to bring the finest home wine making materials these regions have to offer right to our customers’ glass.
Great wine is not made in a factory; it is made in the vineyard, where sunshine, good soil and careful tending make great grapes. We regularly visit with our growers and suppliers, and have stringent quality specifications and standards to ensure that we get the best possible varietals for our wine making supplies. We are offered many different grape juices and concentrates every year, but we make certain we select only the best available for our home wine making kits.
Immediate on-site grape sorting, crushing and pressing, combined with state-of-the-art processing techniques, as well as non-stop shipping systems, combine to ensure that we get the highest levels of flavor and aroma from our grape juices and concentrates. Our commitment to quality doesn’t end there. In our environmentally controlled cellars, our highly trained Quality Assurance Team monitors all our juices and concentrates continuously to ensure that they stay in top condition. With years of experience, our winemakers and Quality Assurance Team follow proven Quality Assurance protocols, to ensure our high standards for consistently producing wine making supplies of the highest quality are met – every harvest and every year.
Vine Co operates like a “functional winery” – combining the traditional art of blending for consistency balanced with leading process technology to make the best home wine making supplies in the industry. This ensures that our wines are delicious and well-balanced, and it explains why wines made with Vine Co kits consistently win the most awards and medals in the North America’s largest amateur winemaking competitions. In fact, they win medals even when competing with wines made from fresh grapes.
At Vine Co, they are always striving for improvement, consistency and quality. Vine Co’s commitment to superiority doesn’t end at the kit. Vine Co helps their authorized retailers with extensive training through their exclusive Winemaking Excellence Programs. From time to time they also support their retailers in hosting evening winemaking education events. These are fun educational evenings that provide you with further knowledge on winemaking, food pairings, or other topics related to the wine-lifestyle.
Everyone that represents Vine Co strives to positively affect quality at every level, from the vineyard to the glass, so that you can make the best wine possible – every single time.

Wine Storage Tips
Wine Storage Tips Here are some storage tips to ensure top quality wine:
DO:
Store your wine upright for the first 3 to 5 days.
After that, store it on its side in order to keep the cork moist.
Store in a cool, dark place.
Your wine should be stored where the temperature is CONSISTENT… Bright light, movement, and temperature fluctuations can negatively affect the quality of your product.
DO NOT:
Do not constantly turn your wine. Red wines will sometimes dust (leave residue on the inside of the bottle). This is normal. Simply decant the product.
Do not store directly on a cement floor. Put a thick piece of wood under your wine storage boxes.
Do not store on heated floors.
