Beaverdale Cabernet/Shiraz — 6 Bottle Wine Kit
The Beaverdale Cabernet/Shiraz 6 Bottle Wine Kit makes approximately 6 bottles (4.5 litres) of a bold, fruit-forward red wine blend at around 12% ABV. Cabernet brings structure, blackcurrant, and firm tannins; Shiraz adds weight, ripe plum, and a lifted peppery warmth — together they produce a rich, satisfying red that punches well above its price point.
No additional sugar required. Simply add water, pitch the yeast, ferment, and bottle. Ready in about 4 weeks.
What Equipment Do You Need?
This kit is ingredients-only. You'll need a demijohn, airlock, hydrometer, siphon, and 6 bottles with corks. Our 6 Bottle Wine Starter Pack bundles the demijohns and equipment together. Always sanitise with VWP or ChemSan.
Upgrading your yeast
