Does anyone know what actually happened to the Young’s Definitive range? I was very fond of them
There's something a little incongruous about someone called Hedgerowpete paying £300 for a bottle of wine. I imagine you in a tattered old greatcoat, buttonless and fastened with a length of bailer twine...
love it, thename comes from the fact i harvest from hedgerows, all crops as well as planting hedges to crop, at present we are trimming elderberry trees for better fruit, a million years ago i set the name up to work three you tube channels as well as a website, beekeeping and instructing, home brew wines and country wines, kites and flying, to include altitude as well as distence and fishing and photography, there was several other items under the hedgerow banner. i joined a wine club where i used to live which was run by the wine merchants, generally it was idiots fat wallets and bids to out do each other. i took it more seriously than that and learnt a lot about old world wines, mainly France, alas the idiots killed it with money and no brains. it was a great chance to taste some amazing wines ( and to buy the odd case) but some times they would break open a special bottle, say £3000 but split over five or six people, i cant see the sence in paying £500 for a glass of wine so i used to step out of it, but managed to get the few drops in a glass. once you realise about wines and what people pay and why its an incredable conThere's something a little incongruous about someone called Hedgerowpete paying £300 for a bottle of wine.

How about now?I've just opened a bottle of Beaverdale Shiraz that has been in the cupboard for three weeks. It's a disappointment. No bouquet, no depth or complexity. I've lowered my standards and it's still dreadful.
It's long gone, it wasn't worth keeping. I think most wine kits disappoint.How about now?
