There’s something meaningful about giving a bottle of wine that you made yourself. It’s personal, thoughtful, and perfect for sharing during life’s most memorable moments.
At Wine Kitz Kamloops, we’ve helped customers craft wine for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, holiday gifts, retirement parties, and more. Whether you’re hosting a celebration or preparing gifts for friends and family, homemade wine adds a special touch that’s hard to match.
Why Homemade Wine Is Perfect for Special Events
Custom wine has a way of making any occasion feel more personal. It’s not just about the wine itself. It’s about the story behind it. When you serve or gift wine that you’ve bottled yourself, people notice.
Customers often come to us looking for something unique to share at a wedding reception, something meaningful to give as a thank-you gift, or a fun and affordable way to stock up for the holidays. Making your own wine is surprisingly simple, and it gives you the chance to create something truly your own.
How Much Wine You Can Make
Each of our wine kits produces about 30 bottles, which is ideal for:
- Small to medium-sized weddings
- Party favors or thank-you gifts
- Celebrating a retirement or milestone birthday
- Stocking up for the holiday season
If you need more, you can always start a second batch or invite friends to bottle together. We provide support throughout the entire process and all the equipment is available in-store.
Timeline: When to Start Your Batch
Good wine takes time, so we recommend planning ahead. Most wine kits take between 4 to 8 weeks to be ready, depending on the style and fermentation time.
If you’re making wine for an event or as a gift, it’s best to start at least two months in advance. This allows enough time for fermentation and settling. It also gives the wine time to develop its flavor before it’s shared.
Customizing the Experience
One of the most popular features we offer is custom labeling. You can add names, a date, or a message like “Thank you for being part of our special day.” This turns each bottle into a keepsake.
You can also choose your preferred wine style. From crisp whites and bold reds to rosés and fruit blends, we’ll help you find the perfect match for your celebration or gift.
A Gift People Will Actually Enjoy
Homemade wine strikes the perfect balance between practical and personal. Unlike gifts that sit on a shelf, this is something your guests or loved ones can open, enjoy, and remember.
Pair your wine with a handwritten note or personalized label and it becomes even more special.
