Measure your wine's alcohol in seconds — the vinometer gives you an instant percentage reading on any finished dry wine.
The vinometer is a simple capillary tube instrument for measuring the approximate alcohol content of finished dry wine. Fill the top with a small sample of your wine, turn it upside down, allow excess to drain, and read the alcohol percentage where the meniscus settles on the scale. Fast, reusable, and requires no calculation.
- Type: capillary tube vinometer
- Measures: approximate alcohol % in finished dry wine
- Simple read — no calculation required
- For dry wines only (not suitable for sweet or fortified wines)
Winemaker's Tip: The vinometer works only on completely dry wines — residual sugar in sweet wines skews the reading dramatically and produces inaccurate results. Use a hydrometer for wines with residual sweetness.
