Signed up hope i get choosen i only get the really really cheap stuff (live within our means ) ohh a posh wine in my cupboard 
See you are all missing a trick here. You could accept the free bottle and next time it's someone's birthday; someone you don't particularly like, you could wrap it up and give it them as a present!
You know, Blossom Hill would be fools if they didn't pick me to receive all their free bottles.

Sounds good, either one for me as think i would like both.
If someone gave me Blossom Hill I would know instantly that:
1. They hated me
2. We weren't going to get along
3. Both

Love Blossom Hill Wine but.......
I hate sweet wine so don't think this one is for me.
majjsu
seriously, may I ask, you think you would like a wine described as sweet, flower-smelling, with ripe peach and strawberry flavour?
what do you usually drink? Ribena?
Oh god is it sweet wine? Hum. I have half a bottle of Blossom Hill rose in my fridge from the summer as the other half gave me insta-hangover.
Serves me right for buying wine from the cash and carry.

Just signed up and am interested to know if lower alcohol = less calories. I'm doing WW at the moment and wine is my absolute downfall and all the snacks I consume when I've had a few glasses.

My glass is always half empty. So I need wine!
You know, it would also be good mixed in punch.
Or used in cooking.
I don't know why more people are signing up for this. I told you all already, Blossom Hill are giving me the rest of the bottles. You are all too late. Sorry. Now jog along.....
The product test of my dreams.
Pick me pick me!
