Question from Anonymous
Thinking of giving as a gift what are the other associated costs
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi there! The varietal wine juice kit ranges from $70.00 to $185.95 and needs to be paid to Beverage Art Inc directly.
Answer from Charlie P. Verified Student
There are also smaller costs after the class incl. racking, labels, and bottles. Save $20 by racking the wine yourself. After scheduling bottling, BevArt will email instructions on creating labels. Design them online (or with a graphics editor) then send BevArt a .JPG of your work to print instead of paying extra. Also keep all your old wine bottles to be sterilized and re-used. Remove labels as best you can. You'll make about 2 cases at bottling. Doing this will make the extras around $20.

Reviewed by Gail G. on 2/10/2020
The class was Great! Just enough information and background to get me interested but not so much that I was impatient to start making wine! Perfect balance. I can't wait to taste the wine. The only suggestion I would make would be for course horse, I did not know you could order your wine kit ahead of time, if it was mentioned I missed it and would like to see tidbits like that have a more prominent place in the description. It was a great experience and I would do it again. Gail

This was such a fun class! We learned about wine making while sipping on wine and then got to make our own with the kit we purchased. I'm excited to go back and bottle the wine. I'd recommend this class to all wine lovers.
