BEER WINE
What difference is there between making wine with fresh grapes versus a kit? (Is it worth the work?)
Modern wine kits are produced to be easy to make, relatively quickly. Making wine from scratch requires more time (several months worth), equipment (crusher, press), technical know how (acid testing eg.), and depends on the availability of fruit seasonally. Kits can be made any time of the year, are prebalanced, and can be ready to bottle in as little as 28 days.
The worth of the work is totally up to the wine maker! Someone who has the time and inclination can certainly make an excellent wine from scratch. Those who prefer a speedier process can also make an excellent wine.
