Wine Awakenings' kits are quite simply the best
educational product available for enhancing consumers' enjoyment
and knowledge of wine.
Wine Awakenings has exhaustively researched the aromas found in
wine, and has faithfully reproduced them in a series of six kits,
consisting of five varietals and one wine faults.
All Wine Awakenings' varietal and wine style kits
contain descriptive and illustrative booklets. They outline the
predominant aromas for each of the varietal wines, and describe
their origin. A brief history of the variety, with descriptions
of the aromas, as well as tips on tasting are included.
The bottles and booklet are held in place by an
attractive vacuum mold, and boxed in a beautiful cigar box for durability
and classic looks. Each package is letter embossed with the name
of the varietal and the Wine Awakenings logo. The exterior dimensions
of each package are approximately 12.5 in. high x 9.75 in. wide
x 2 in. thick. The complete set of varietal kits will show handsomely
in your bookshelf or dining room buffet cabinet. A wonderful and
affordable collection for the wine enthusiast
We use a food-safe preservative in our aroma formulations to maximize their stability and shelf-life.
There still will be a slow deterioration in the quality of aromas over time; some more than others.
If the bottles are re-capped immediately after each time they are opened and stored away from excessive heat and light, then this process would normally be measured in years.
If stored/used incorrectly, then this will obviously happen more quickly.
We haven't yet put a 'definitive' shelf-life limit on our products because our own internal quality control checks are yet to detect an appreciable difference with time in the aroma quality! Also, we have had no consumer complaints or product returned due to concerns over premature loss of quality over time. Nonetheless, we are constantly striving to improve and expand our products. If an aroma does exhibit a loss of intensity, we will replace it.
