http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... eason.html Quote: Much of the wine is bottled on-site after being shipped into the country in massive 25,000-litre vats to save costs.
The plant is currently filling 800 bottles per minute in preparation for the festive season.... |

I was looking through some old photos last night, from Christmas '97 or '98. One pic shows me carving the turkey at the table, with an open bottle of Stowells Chardonnay. Feel my shame.

There is nothing to say. We all have secrets and it was brave of you to share. Mind you, I've been known to drink tasting leftovers that aren't exactly high class. |

truth be told, case was bought exactly a year ago ! Has taken me all this time to find times desperate enough to dip into these 07 wasn't nearly as nice as I remembered the 06 to be had one on Sunday just to use up the supply (was easy glugging but nothing spesh - fairly fruit driven with a lame duck of a finish) Think the other bottles will be used for slow cooked shoulder of lamb |
