Thank you, loving each moment!
As an enthusiastic amateur, who started in the UK almost 40 years ago, and restarted here in SA because of lockdown, I found this incredibly interesting and useful, I hope to aspire to better wine, I am sure that I will revisit the manual again and again.
Well presented, I will be in contact of you to give feedback of my products, I will taste and play around with it, it look nice, I did enjoy the course.
Well done, Annalise - a very good presentation. The detail and content being informative, comprehensive, and to the point. Your engaging approach to the topics presented adds to the detail for which one seeks in the making of wine.
A minor point ............. the voice-over faded now and then, but that may have been due to me running the presentation (at times) at 1.25 to 1.5 speed !!!!!
The opportunity to exchange in further detail is appreciated, and I look forward to my wine making endeavours based on your course content, and supporting documentation.
