D1[0]=" Created using an old Italian basket press and fermented and matured in oak, Thorogoods apple wines are a true hand-crafted, old world product.  At Thorogoods, they strive to be organic in the orchard and chemical-free in the cella";
D2[0]="r which enables us to create a clean wine that is a supreme expression of the craft. In 1989, whilst working full-time in Adelaide, my wife Susan and I signed a piece of paper and took possession of 106 acres of rolling hills near";
D3[0]=" the historic copper mining town of Burra in the Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia. The vision was to plant a forest of native trees, an orchard containing every type of fruit tree known to man, keep a flock of free range chicke";
D4[0]="ns and build a colonial style mud brick house in the middle of it all. The thing with dreams is that they don't always work out the way they were planned. The native trees did well, the chooks arrived, started laying eggs and in d";
D5[0]="ue course we built the house but most of the fruit trees turned up their heels and died! When we built the house we were on site every weekend and every holiday. We started building in February and moved in on Christmas Eve of the";
D6[0]=" same year and what we discovered was that Burra, far from being a hot dry place, is a cold frosty place. The frost was the killer. Amongst the fruit trees we had planted were Cox's Orange Pippin, Bramley Seedling and Egremont Rus";
D7[0]="set all apple trees and they thrive on Burra's cold winters and warm to hot summers. So we planted Cleopatra, Rome Beauty, Laxton Superb, Fox Whelp and 70 more varieties of old apples. The Fox Whelp is a true cider apple and it wa";
D8[0]="s in the cider apples that our dreams came to fruition. As the apple trees started to bear fruit we began making cider. Many vintages followed, some good, some not so good but it became apparent early on that the more traditional ";
D9[0]="methods we used and the more traditional equipment we were able to obtain the better the cider. Thorogoods Fine Apple Wines now has outlets in the Clare Valley, Adelaide Hills, Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. It has been exported ";
