Chateau Classico 6 Week Wine Kit, Argentinian Malbec, 40-Pound Box

I purchased this kit mostly out of curiousity. I have been making wine for a couple years and have only purchased Wine Expert kits which have been ok. This is the first 6week kit of any kind I have done. It is in the secondary aging at the present time but, when I transfered it and tasted it I was suprised at how well it tasted and the amount of body it had. I will do a update once I bottle it but, at the present time I am considering purchasing the Amarone version of this kit. Update on 07/09/2010. this wine has been in the bottle for a while now and is 6 months old from the day I pitched the yeast. Opened an bottle and was very suprised at how good it tasted compared to 3 months. I will let it age for 6 more months now. This is a kit I would do again.

Novemeber 13, 2010 update. This wine has aged quite well. I opened another bottle and am impressed with the wine. Doesn't have any kit taste like I get from some of the other brands of kits. This is my 12 wine kit and one of the best so far. I will buy this one again and let it age for a year before consuming any.

The wine is very good but the package was totally demolished when it arrived. The bag with the must survived OK but the corks etc were going all over the place. I had enough corks left over from previous kits so everything was OK. It's my opinion that the packaging for this 40 pound kit is not substantial enough to survive a UPS trip. Thanks for all the really good wine kits that I have recieved from AMAZON.

THIS WAS MY FIRST NON FRUIT FLAVORED WINE I HAVE MADE AND IT FINISHED OFF AS A NEW FAVORITE. THE DEEP RICH COLOR IS VERY NICE IN THE BOTTLE AND GLASS. MY FRIENDS SAY ITS AWESOME. I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS AND IT CAME OUT PERFECT.

I just bottled this wine. It stated it was a full 6 gallons. In order to get 6 gallons, I needed to top off with better than a gallon of water. I thought that would dilute the wine too much, so I racked it into a 5 gallon carboy and proceeded from there. I did add oak chips during the fermenting process.

The end result, this wine is great. When I asked my wife what she thought, she said this is going to be really big. I'll cellar it, but I don't think it will last long. I'd defintely do another one of these.

Since I didn't get the full six gallons therefore 4 stars.

Leyden Cheese (8oz or 1lb)

My father a Holland native loves his Leyden cheese!! Every year we struggle to find a place to get it and ship for a reasonable rate. For the first time this year we went through amazon.com/ an excellent choice. The vendor whom the cheese came from shipped promptly and the experience was more than satisfactory. Especially pleasing since I ordered days before CHristmas and expected delivery after Christmas, but somehow it arrived on Christmas Eve.... fantastic service and great quality!!!

My family is from the Netherlands and on my last trip to visit, I brought some Leyden cheese home with me. Once I ran out, I searched high and low but was not able to find a comparable flavor anywhere...until I stumbled on it here on Amazon. The cheese is a Dutch Gouda laced with cumin seed, it gives the cheese a nice spiced flavor, absolutely amazing. I ordered it immediately and the price was very fair for this importThe seller emailed me the day they shipped the product and it arrived two days later packed in dry ice. I will be reordering.

Great product!! Shipped very fast!! Quite tasty!! Some butter garlic and cheese! yuum!! You get about 15 in the can, worth the price!

This is the third order I've made for Escal's Burgundy escargot. I tried several brands and by far this one is the best. I did receive a dented can in a recent order and didn't want to risk that the snails might be tainted so I emailed the company. They shipped a brand new can out to me immediately for free! Terrific customer service!

Reserve Du Chateau 6 Week Wine Kit, Chilean Cabernet Merlot, 55-Pound Container

6 weeks into the process, I am pleased with the quality of this still green wine. Took a sample last night. The wine was perfectly clear, so I can't understand why the instructions recommend filtration? The flavor and aroma profiles indicate that after another nine months of ageing this will be a pretty good medium bodied red wine. The specific gravity of the grape juice was right at 1.075, which is the low end of the specification range (1.075-1.090). I added sugar to bring it up to 1.085 before starting the fermentation. Wished the kit contained a package of grape skins.

I purchased this kit for my husband, who is an amateur wine maker. The instructions were easy to follow and the resulting wine is better than those we have purchased at local wineries. As it ages, we expect it to get even better.

This wine kit made excellent tasting homemade wine, and without all the work. It is easy to throw the ingredients together, and the sticker labels that come with it are fun for your dad or whoever gets this kit to come up with names to label their fancy wines. My husband and i gave this as a christmas present to my dad and he loved it. he has been making homemade wine for many years and this was the easiest kit he's ever used and has experience in all difficulties. this came on time and we qualified for free shipping.

Art of Appreciation Gift Baskets A Grand Gourmet Food Occasion Basket

I have been buying gift baskets from Art of Appreciation for the last two Christmas holidays and I am so pleased with the quantity and quality of the food as well as the presentation that I think this will become a holiday tradition for me from now on! The baskets always have enough variety so there is something to please every member of the family.

What a letdown!!! I had this hamper shipped to my wife and daughter in Seattle, as we could not be together for Christmas.

The first reaction was one of delight, it LOOKED magnificent. Upon closer inspection they found it was 90% wrapping, and 10% product. The disappointment was huge! What a rip off. I am usually very pleased with Amazon and their partners, but this is one that definitely needs to be looked at!! That definitely spoiled our Christmas!!!

I love giving gift baskets as a "Get Well" or "Thank You" and this one was a gift for a friend who needed a lift, and boy, did she love it! The basket is large and reusable, and the variety of treats in it was very well received. There was enough to feed a few people, and the arrival on July 3 very prompt delivery ended up being part of the holiday picnic. Every single item was very much enjoyed, and I got a lot of heartfelt thank yous for the gift. On my list to get again (I think I need one now).

Kardoula Peppers Stuffed with Feta - Red (6.35 ounce)

These things are incredible!!!

At parties, they are almost always the first thing to disappear.

The flavors are wonderful.

They make a great side with steaks. They are good thrown in a salad.

Friends of mine that hate feta absolutely love these.

I have been buying these locally for almost $17 a pound and one day I saw them refilling the olive bar and noticed the label. It's this exact product and they are my new favorite party food. Everyone raves about them and they require no prep at all. The only thing I recommend is drain as much of the oil off as you can, as they can be greasy. They are only mildly spicy, and go well with all types of fare. Despite my best efforts to cook everything I serve, no matter what else I make, these always take top compliments.

Raspberry Flower Honey - California

My husband and I traveled the US for several years and always enjoyed buying the local honey. After moving to Oklahoma to stay I wanted to give him a suprise. The packaging of this honey is why I bought it (and I wasn't disappointed! My husband didn't want to tear the paper to open it and was relunctant to let me throw it away :))But the flavor is why we will buy it again and again!! This is the smoothest honey I have ever tasted! In fact, my son is soon turning one and we want to avoid the sugar overload of cake and frostinginstead he will get this honey!
