WINE KEGS

Pour Your Next Glass
BY A KEG FROM NEVADA CITY WINERY
“Wine on tap means the first glass poured is as fresh as the last”

Nevada City Winery is extremely excited to release our kegs to the general public. There are many benefits to serving wine by the keg in addition to the ease of having a larger quantity of wine in one container. Using kegged wine ensures freshness from the first glass to the last, without losing integrity through oxidation, corkage, or spoilage.
 
Our kegs are perfect for large parties and events where great wine can be served with ease, at a lower cost and with less waste. We hope that making our favorite varietals available by the keg will benefit our customers as they’re able to serve their loved ones with a quality product made with the utmost care.

KEG EQUIPMENT
We know the most intimidating part of purchasing a wine keg
is getting the equipment together to properly tap it.
​
​
Therefore, we established a relationship with Sierra Moonshine to ensure everything would be available locally. You can either rent or purchase all necessary equipment from Sierra Moonshine or select set packages already equipped with everything you need. The owner, John Lyon, will personally set up these keg packages and test it to ensure usability. 

There are many ways to configure a wine tap and we encourage you to research all options for the best fit. However, here is a list to get you started. 

Wine tap equipment consists of:
Wine-Compatible 304 Stainless Steel Faucet(s), Keg Coupler(s), 
Nitrogen cylinder, Nitrogen Gas, Gas Lines, and Regulator.
