I want to buy a quantity - about 40kg - of Merlot (or similar) grapes to make a decent batch of wine for the end of next year, but I can't find anywhere in the UK that really stocks them. I know there is a finite window in which the grapes are harvestable, but I believe we are in that window at the moment and so I want to get going with it.

I have tried various sites (Wine Grape Club etc) and none of them seem to bother replying! I imagine I'm just small fry compared to a lot of their normal punters, but surely a response isn't too much to ask?

Does anyone know of anywhere reliable to source these from? I'm based in Southampton but will travel to collect or can arrange a courier easily enough.
