As per the DM, we are told Meg is using Fairwinds Estate winery for her rose. Sounds nice.
But a Reddit user has discovered, that Fairwinds winery is just a brand under the umbrella of Wine gift shop. They do corporate gifts and print on demand. Oh Meg, as ever

You also bought a hose because you needed a hose- not because you want to support Jeff and that wedding he’s still paying for.

Got confused for a moment!!! 🤣🤣

But I want the wine too, why’s that so hard for folks to understand? Genuinely?

But what 'folks' are saying is that you don't know anything about this wine, other than that Meghan is flogging it. It's relatively expensive, you have to buy multiple bottles, and you won't receive it for maybe two weeks.

So you aren't buying it for the product itself, as you could get something the same or better much more cheaply, conveniently and quickly in any supermarket. You're buying it to 'support' Meghan. And yes, your money your choice. But some of us find this sort of fandom quite fascinating, which is why we are commenting on it.

I suppose because we can’t understand WHY you want the wine! Before I buy wine, I taste it , go to the vineyard and speak to the vintner or speak to someone who has tried it and liked it. I don’t buy wine, especially when it isn’t cheap stuff, just because some celebrity has put their name on it!

Well to be fair @IcedPurple, it is refreshing when someone admits they are a fan and in contact with other squaddies!

Bit of backtracking though re various "fandoms".

I cannot think of one person here or pondside I know who would possibly be buying this.

True. It's a nice change from posters who don't follow the royals at all and just chanced upon this thread, but simply can't understand why people are so obsessed with a couple they don't even know!

Is there anything you wouldn’t buy from Meghan? Will you literally buy anything she sells?

certainly not everything.

BasiliskStare · 01/07/2025 18:12

I think they are too. I think back in the day though , the American women brought the money to the party in return for the titles. Very different now , Harry seems to have brought both to the party 😂.

Edit to remove from wrong quote sorry!

Ah that’s fair but I’m no kylie fan and bought her wine. The only difference is the annoying shipping time 🤷🏽‍♀️

my sister tried Gordon Ramsays etc

Indeed ! And not just one or two!! At least 25 squaddies!

It’s the honest truth, I’ve known some of the girls since my Merlin fandom days, then the Scandal fandom, some Supernatural etc

🤣 you never forget your first outside tap!!!
the joy of not going back and forth continuously with a watering can !
give it some good hose action @Profhilodisaster!

Until we get the inevitable drought restrictions 😂.

Mind you, I'm in the East, which is as hot as hell currently and resemble an overcooked tomato.

Oh absolutely! As also illustrated in Downton Abbey. But if Lady Elizabeth Anson's account is to be believed (and I do believe her), Meghan was as ruthless as Bertha Russell. No fortune to bring to the table, but no shortage of single minded social climbing.

I got around this by buying a pump for my waterbutt and attaching a hose to that!! ( I admit to refilling my waterbutt if it doesn’t rain!! 😳)

catin8oot5 · 01/07/2025 18:26

The apricot spread lash up. The wine ‘sell out’. It’s all a massive farce. How she doesn’t want to just crawl under a rock and stay there is beyond me. And Harry too. Do they have no shame?

True. Far preferable to the Sussex supporting republicans and the tedious, frothing spell check abuser who claims they are not a fan, but.....

Anyone buying overpriced wine purely because of who the seller is (IMHO) an ....Eejit!

She obviously thinks selling out is a display of success!!
and to be fair she was an supporting actress on a cable show who married a prince , what does she know about business! 🤷‍♀️

I just wonder what possible joy there can be in life when your whole life is just a sham essentially.

The way it was explained to me is that she’d have to start with a smaller initial order to
build a relationship with the winery and be alloted an amount of grapes for harvesting (idk what the word is), if it’s a success then she’d be given more. And build more inventory from there.

Maybe we could all give tataler some recommendations for non-celebrity rose wine so she has something to compare the Meghan brand to!

But that was her career , it’s all she knows!
pretending to be something or someone else, I don’t think she sees or feels the same as most of us , who let’s face it would be mortified by all of this.
