This raffle is kindly sponsored by Geterbrewed.com (http://www.geterbrewed.com) for a marvelous Sadlers Reserve 12 bottle wine kit, manufactured by 'The Micro Winery Company' site (http://www.themicrowinerycompany.com/#home)
They normally sell £49.95/€58.94 but you get a lot of bang for your buck
Thanks GetErBrewed :)
In return the winner writes a full honest review of the product and resulting beer.
Because wine takes so long to condition, the review should start early with packaging, equipment, ingredients, instructions, must, yeast etc and evolve at different stages of brewing.
This is a really good opportunity to try your hand at wine making.

Hmmm...Tempted :P
However, because I've won in 2 out of the last 3 raffles I think I might exclude myself from this on.
Good luck!
