wine kits vs home made vs commercial

[Thomas]

The last time I made wine at home was in the seventies. The kits then included grape concentrate. If that is what U-Brew or any other kit is, then the quality can't be much better than what I got.

I don't believe grape growers would sell their best crops to go as concentrate, plus wine is such a natural product that the very idea of creating grape concentrate goes against the natural idea.

You can get fresh grapes and fresh pressed juice during harvest from suppliers who are in the business of servicing home winemakers--at least it can be done in the U.S. I do not know much about what is available in Vancouver.
