Cellar Craft Wine Kits in Campbell River BC

Most winemakers are restricted to making wines from only the grapes grown in their immediate areas. They all can and do make fine wines, but they are clearly limited in the styles that they can produce.

Cellar Craft wines source from a global network of grape suppliers. Cellar Craft usually has at least 30 different grape stocks from three continents in our cellars. When you choose a Cellar Craft wine kit, you have an unmatched choice of juices with which to make superb wines of all styles.

We offer classic Cellar Craft wines from all major areas. Discover, compare, and enjoy the regional differences. Our regional wine styles are each clearly labeled so you know what you will be getting when you pull the cork.

Perhaps more importantly, we can marry grapes from two, three, or four regions to produce a wine that surpasses the quality of wines made only from "local" grapes. This global flexibility allows us to present wines far beyond the scope of regionally restricted winemakers. A Merlot made from choice grapes from three continents, for example, can make a truly outstanding wine that surpasses the limits imposed by regional borders.

Each of these trans-regional creations as "Global Cuvées," or global blends. Discover the global pleasures of Cellar Craft-wines without borders at Willow Point Wines in Campbell River, BC.

Showcase Collection Red Wine Kits ( 17 Articles )

Our most distinctive and unique creations have been selected to carry the Showcase Collection banner. Many of our wine kits stand apart from our other offerings and have been deemed worthy of Showcase designation. Their distinction may come from breakthrough technology, such as our exclusive Crushed Grape Packs or our unique two-stage oaking system; best of the vintage Limited Release status; unique regional wines, usually vineyard-designated, reflecting distinctive character or simply any wine which we believe reflects a new level of excellence or discovery for the wine hobbyist.

The demanding criteria for a Showcase wine means that they may be in limited supply or isolated to a specific vintage. The level of excellence may require extra processing steps and, while designed to be bottle-ready in as little as 6 weeks, may require lengthier processing and cellaring time to show at their peak.With vineyard-specific sourcing, our Showcase wines will reflect subtle, and not so subtle differences from vintage to vintage. Vintage variations are after-all part of the intrigue and charm of small lot, estate wines.

All Showcase wines are proudly presented as being wines which we believe the most ardent wine enthusiast would be rewarded in discovering.

Showcase Collection White Wine Kits ( 7 Articles )

They begin in the vineyard. Exceptional grapes are used for our Showcase Collection. Most are harvested from specific blocks of named vineyards. All are given exceptional care during processing to ensure that all of the desirable character is retained and that no undesirable qualities are introduced.

Care starts in the vineyards where we stipulate that yields must be controlled to less than 3 tons per acre. Intensity of flavours is preserved. The grapes are crushed and pressed in small batches using gentle bladder presses. No bitterness is introduced through overly aggressive juice extraction. The juices are settled only by gravity. No fining agents, filters or centrifuges are used. This leaves all of the desirable solids in the juices so that they can impart their flavours and esters into the wine during fermentation.

The juices typically go from the vine to our freezers, at -18 degrees, in less than 24 hours. No sugars have been added to the must. No non-grape flavours, esters or botanicals have been added to the kit. We hope that you will agree that this attention to quality produces wines like you have never before experienced from a kit or bought juices.

Note: Minimum processing creates superior flavours and aromatics but you may occasionally encounter "wine diamonds" in the bottle or glass, especially if the wine was over-chilled or stored several days in the refrigerator. These are natural, tasteless, harmless and inert. Simply pour the wine, gently trying to leave the crystals in the bottle.
