Wine Bottling QC Training

From tank to label - every detail matters. Before the bottle is even filled, quality begins. This 4-hour practical training session (in-house) walks your team through the entire bottling quality control process - from preparing wine for bottling to final product checks before dispatch.

Whether your estate bottles in-house or sends product to mobile bottlers, this training ensures your staff know how to:

• Approve wine for bottling (filter checks, turbidity, sulphur)
• Conduct pre-bottling sanitation and rinse inspections
• Spot issues with closures, labels, fill heights, and more
• Understand export-driven expectations for traceability and shelf stability
• Reduce spoilage, waste, and customer complaints

Why This Training?

Because too many good wines get lost to poor bottling.
Because quality doesn’t just happen - it’s taught.
