I caught the last part of a program called Chateau Monty, basically a middle class guy goes to France to produce his own wine with focus on all things Organic, blah blah blah. Anyway i would have loved to have seen the first two parts of the program as this Organic wine thing has been a good taste so far although what i found a little unrealistic was the fact that here was this guy who produced his own wine for the first time on mass scale using techniques not commonly used and the end result was reported to have been good. Not just good but so good that top restaurants and wine sellers in London bought cases of it.
I was under the impression that wine would take years of experience and nurturing before you get a decent bottle, if it was that easy to produce I'm sure plenty more would do it.
Maybe the success of his wine was more to do with the TV Crew, Daddy's friends at the Gentleman's Club and his own contacts in the trade rather than the wine itself.
Proof is in the Pudding, ill have to search for a bottle.

I think you've hit the nail on the head Monkey. It seems unlikey that he could have been that good right away...but more to the point...what about the DOG!
He was the brains behind the plonk.
