Appendix E Cost Price of a Bottle of Wine-An Example The price of a finished bottle of wine can vary enormously depending on what variety you make, the quantity, your additives, your equipment and your packaging selections. Corks alone range from ZAR 2-20. Ordering supplies in small amounts is always more expensive, and printed materials such as capsules, screw caps, boxes and labels all have initial art work and die making costs, as well as minimum orders. Following is a rough example of what it might cost you to convert one ton of Shiraz grapes into six hundred litres of wine, or eight hundred bottles. 72 Rand Price per Bottle One Ton of Shiraz Grapes from Agter Paarl @ 4000R/ton 5.00 Yeast, nutrients, tartaric acid, sulphur dioxide @ 200 R/ton 0.25 2 new barrels, 1 French and 1 American, 11000 Rand /3 years 4.60 Bottles (1 pallet minimum order), recycled @ 2 R/bottle 3.00 Printed Screw cap* (minimum order applies) 1.00 Labels* one colour front and back for order of 1000 1.00 Boxes* and Inserts 12 x 750ml @ 6 R/box 0.50 Duty 2.14 Rand per litre 1.61 Wine and Spirit Board and Wine Analysis Fees 1.50 Mobile Bottling and Labelling .75 Subtotal 19.21 Plastic Fermentation bins x 2 @ 1800 R /10 years .22 Manual Basket Press 30000 Rand/10 years 3.75 Simple Crusher De-Stemmer 9200 Rand/10 years 1.15 Total 24.33 This price doesn‟t include initial cellar set up costs, electricity, labour or VAT costs.*My initial art and die fee for boxes was 5000 Rand, labels 3500 Rand, and screw caps 2000 Rand.
