Sanitise your fermenter, equipment and bottles first with ChemSan no-rinse sanitiser.
SG Wines Platinum Shiraz makes 30 bottles of a bold yet approachable red wine with dark berry fruits, notes of spice, and subtle, earthy complexity. Platinum is the top tier of the Solomon Grundy family — richer concentrate for noticeably more body and depth than Gold or Classic.
What You Get
- Premium grape concentrate, yeast, finings and stabiliser
- Ferments in 5+ days at 18-22°C
- Makes 30 x 750ml bottles (23 litres)
- No additional brewing sugar required
What Equipment Do You Need?
A 23-litre fermentation vessel, airlock, hydrometer, syphon, and 30 bottles. New to home winemaking? Our wine starter kits bundle all essentials. Always sanitise with VWP or ChemSan — it's the single most important step for a clear, clean-tasting wine.
Upgrading your yeast: for a red like this, try Mangrove Jack's R56, built for rich, full-bodied reds with real aromatic complexity — a better match for Platinum's positioning than a quick-drinking strain. If your fermenting spot runs cold over winter (often under 15°C), Lalvin EC-1118 is the more reliable choice.
Tips for Best Results
- Ferment at 18-22°C for a clean, consistent result
- Allow the wine to clear fully before bottling
- Platinum rewards patience — condition for 3-4 weeks in the bottle
