What You'll Get
Wine is made from grapes that have been mashed and left to age, which is why the poets have dubbed it "the hamburger of beverages." Live a refined life with this Groupon.

About Winexpert North York
Based on eight detailed criteria, from type and country of origin to oak intensity and timeframe, Winexpert North York's resident winemaker Jason Killackey matches guests with more than 100 varietals from around the world. Once they select their wine, visitors mix their ingredients into a primary fermentation container and sprinkle in yeast at Winexpert's microwinery, letting their batches ferment for approximately six weeks. Then, with the facility's pneumatic corkers and bottle washing service, patrons sanitize and fill their bottles before dressing each with a customized label and decorative shrink cap. Customers take wines home after bottling, where they continue to age until customers enjoy their first sip or christen a new ocean liner.
