Vintage is one of those books which is exactly what you expect. It has a glossy, expensive looking cover, with a model clutching a bottle of champagne, its title and author splashed across the middle of the cover in bold, gold lettering. It looks to be a glamorous, sexy read, and it does indeed deliver on its promises - and a little extra something added in there too.
Vintage follows three women who enter the man's world of wine-making, well champagne making to be exact. Madeleine Arsenault is the daughter of a French champagne-maker, and is left his vineyard when he dies. Madeleine wants to produce a vintage wine of her own, and is determined to prove her critics, who don't believe a woman can create a great wine, wrong and to rise to the top of her game. Kelly Elson, a chambermaid in a hotel is also left a vineyard in a will, but ...

Vintage VRS100
Well first off I paid £150 for this. Ex-demo, so not new, not second hand, think in-between the two. This is a PRS copy and Vintage have pretty much nailed the body shape! It's a Double-cut. Vintage says the VRS means "Vintage Rock Series".
The finish I chose for this guitar was the "through blue". A very dark blue finish on the front with a lighter greeny-blue on the back and neck. This finish is semi transparent (you can see the wood). Through blue is now a discontinued colour.
For the body 3 pieces of Eastern poplar have been used. A bookmatched flamed maple veneer is glued on top. The top of the guitar is carved while the back is contoured for comfort. The neck is nice and chunky set neck and is made up of 2 pieces of maple with a 1 piece rosewood fingerboard. Upon the fretboard are 24 medium frets ...
Advantages: Great taste, Great gifts, Well presented, Satisfying Disadvantages: Pricey, Might prefer other chocolate
crackers, each of which comes with a small selection of chocolates in each cracker.
***VINTAGE BUTTONS***
The button?s come in milk chocolate and dark chocolate; I am however reviewing the dark chocolate buttons. The button?s come in a pink box with a lovely pattern design on the box. On the flap to the side of the box it tells you that they researched old buttons from the 1700s, 1800s and early 1900s and became so absorbed that they decided to do their own collection. You get a total of 18 antique buttons in a box which are cast in 70% cocoa dark chocolate. The box is 100g and it cost?s £6.00.
On the back of the box you will find a list of ingredients and their contact details as well as a picture of the buttons which you get inside the box as well. It also has a sell by date too, which isn?t until 15th Feb 2011, so these keep for a long ...
