Chilean or African Juice

[Racinjoe]

I am a long time homebrewer and 1 year winemaker. I am looking at buying a couple of buckets of wine juice from Philly Homebrews group buy. What is everyone opinion of the difference between the Chilean and African juices? The Africans are $10 more a bucket. Are they better or just cost more due to shipping?

It looks like the biggest difference is the choice of grape varietal. Both Chili and South Africa grow some amazing grapes and make great wine. You won't go wrong either way, in terms of quality. So it comes down to what type of wine you enjoy and want to make. Shipping, customs, and grape yields probably all factor into the additional cost of the South African grapes.
