Ex-'Emmerdale' star makes own wine

Adele Silva has made her own wine and filmed the process for a new internet series.

Mistress Of The Vine follows the former Emmerdale actress as she learns the ancient art.

Silva told The Retford Times: "I keep pinching myself. It was a really long process, because obviously you can't make wine overnight, but I know I could say to my girlfriends now, 'Oh, come round and I can crack open a bottle of my wine'."

Silva was helped with the venture by Philip Goodband, master of wines for Stowells. Mistress Of The Vine can be seen online at www.stowells-wines.com.

The actress, who played Kelly Windsor in Emmerdale, made an emotional exit from the ITV1 soap last year.
