Apnil 8, 2003-G9 Mîitoi,ý's just VVîe starter kits wun i6 gold medals at internationalI wine tasting event When Gunnar Ostby took over Just Wines on Bronte Street S in 2000 he had one ambition: to offer Milton residents the opportunity f0 make for themselves tome of the finest wines in the world. n a recent wine competition sponsored by The Wine Maker Magazine in the U.S. he more than realized his dream when Brew King's Premium Selection wine starter kits he offert to clients won 16 gold medaît, a number of silver and bronze awards, and 3 out of 5 Best of Show Awards. No other kit supplier was awarded more than 7 gold medals. The performance was truly remarkable when one considers that more than 800 entries from 42 U.S. states, 7 Canadian provi)cet and 4 other countries, were tasted by 27 expert judget, and wine starter kits even competed with fresh-grape- juice entries.

"lt confirms my bel ief that do-it-yourself wines can compete with many of the best brand-name products at a fraction of the cost" said Gunnar. "It alto explains why 25% of aIl wines consumed in Canada is consumer made," he added. How do-it-yourtelf wine making works. Wine making stores do not seil wine. They recommend and selI wine-starter kits and ail the services that are needed to complete the wine making procets. These services are paid for up front and include adviting the customer in mixing ingredients in a primary fermentor. AIl subtequent services such at controlling the fermentation procets in a temperature- controlled fermentation room; racking; stabilizing; de- gassing; clarifying and filtering are taken care of by Just Wine When the wine is ready Just Wine asks the customer to make a bottling appointment. Customers can bring their own dlean boules, which the store ster- ilîzes and rinses, or botties can be pur- chased at the store. If required, labels and shrink capsules are available at a nominal cost. Personalized labels for weddings and gifts are also available. Ail corks and taxes are,included in the kit starter price. Selecting the right starter kit. Regular customers usually know what they want, but new customers often require advice. AIl store staff are trained experts who are able to guide clients through the large«choice of Premium Selection and Regular Selection of reds and whites available. New customers often ask, "what is the difference Gunnar9 between Premium and Regular and is 342 Broni the extra price worth it?" Both Premium and Regular are made from 100% Varietal Juice/Concentrate, however Premium kits offer a higher juice- to-concentrate ratio, which gives a more distinct character, bouquet and body. They are often referred to as 6-week kits needing more maturing in the boule to bring out their intricate layers of flavours and aromas. Regular, or 4-week kits, need not sit very long before they can be enjoyed. They reach their Ostby owner of Jusi Wine Iocated at te St. S., Milton peak quickly and wiII not change very much with age. A 1selection of both can be ideal but choice is personal and often -comes down to taste and storage space. Just Wine also offers superb Specialty Wine kits for Sherry, Port and Ice Wine.
