A great Valentines Day gift, the Artful Winemaker All-Inclusive wine making kit comes complete with everything needed to make 12 delicious bottles of wine at home, including all the equipment, winemaking ingredients, glass wine bottles, closures, foils and bottle labels; an online label lounge enables users to customize their labels. Shoppers can choose among six varietals to try – kits come with the needed grape juice concentrate – and options include Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Cabernet/Shiraz, Merlot, and Pinot Noir.

The Artful Winemaker was created through five years of extensive research and was designed to simplify the often intimidating process of home wine making. It is easy to use and very compact, so it can sit right on a kitchen counter or in a small storage space. What's more, once the system is purchased, all the equipment can be reused time and time again by purchasing a refill kit for any of the varietals, regularly priced at $59.99. When making wine from refill kits, this works out to just $4.99 per bottle.

"The Artful Winemaker is definitely a romantic gift – many couples dream of owning their own winery someday, and this gives them a little taste of being a winemaker," said Melissa Panagopoulos, Marketing Manager for Artful Winemaker. "The process allows couples to take their appreciation of wine to another level, and actually toast one another with something they created themselves from scratch."

In addition to the February discounts, lucky fans also have a chance to win their own Artful Winemaker system through the company's "Love & Wine, Pin & Win" Pinterest contest. To participate, follow Artful Winemaker on Pinterest and create a pinboard around the theme of love and wine by Feb. 18, 2013.
