We at Divine Wines are always striving to bring you the best wine kits that we can find. Just like commercial wines, our industry is advancing in quality all the time and none more so than RJ Spagnols. Being bought out by the biggest wine company in the world has given them access to great juices from many countries, and changes in management in the last few years has meant a forward looking focus in the Cru Select line, resulting in fantastic wines. To fill in any holes in the Cru Select lineup, we have gone to the Spagnols Cellar Classic line. We are getting good results with those wines also.

These wines are what we call our Silver line of wines and our customers tell us they are as good as $14 to $16 bottles of wines, but at a fraction of the cost.

All kits made at Divine Wines come with the new synthetic corks. Wineries are getting away from natural cork because of contamination problems. They are using either screwcap or synthetic corks. There is no way we can go to screwcap because of the cost of the machinery so we have gone with the synthetic corks which are the next best closures. This means you can let your wines age longer and reach their perfection without the worry of the wine oxidizing and going bad.
