LENNY'S

HOW IT WORKS

With a seemingly never ending list of wines to choose from, you're sure to find the one that you'll love. Each batch makes 28-30 bottles, and the price you see includes the kit, service fee, and applicable taxes.

The Wine Making Process​

  •  Visit your local Lenny's Wine Cellar.

  •  We'll help you choose the wine kit (or kits) that's right for you.

  •  Start your wine by sprinkling the yeast into the juice to start the fermentation.

  • Our skilled staff members will handle the rest of the winemaking process.

  • About 4 to 8 weeks later, depending on the quality of kit you chose, we will let you know when your wine is ready to bottle.

  • When you come in for your bottling appointment, we'll sterilize your bottles for you (or you can buy new ones from us). As your bottles get filled, you'll use the air-powered corker to cork them, shrink-wrap the tops in the color of your choice, and apply your labels (additional cost for labels).

  • You can also choose to bag your wine, just ask.

  • Synthetic corks are included with all batches of wine, real corks are available at an additional cost (with the exception of 8 week premium wine kits where real corks are included).

Wine Storage Tips

Here are some wine storage tips to ensure top quality wine:

Do:

  • Store your wine upright for the first 3 to 5 days.

  • After that, store your wine on its side to keep the cork moist.

  • Store your wine 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 wine.

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 your wine.

  • Do not store your wine directly on a cement floor. Put a thick piece of wood under your wine storage boxes.

  • Do not store your wine on heated floors.
