The direct marketers managed to get me whilst receptive twice this month... Must be the result of being back at work after a glorious 2 month period of unplanned holidays.

nice choices there Mike.
With the 2014 Semillon - are they like a futures selection or you've actually got your hands on them already?

CK, All of them are in my cellar.... Sleeping. The hype over 2014 (justified based on the semillons I've tasted) means they are racing out the door.

After running out of space in the cellar long ago with boxes stacked up everywhere still could not stop the habit:
12 x Chalmers 2012 Arturo Heathcote Malbec
12 x Our tennis club bottling of a 2013 Coonwarra Cabernet that's quite nice. Some furry tannins but some lovely fruit underneath that should come together in a year or 2.
And duty free coming home from NZ:
1 x Oban 14 YO single malt whisky
1 x Tallisker Dark Cloud SMW

After opening my first bottle from my dozen of 2012 Mt Ida last night I bought another dozen immediately.. Fantastic wine at a ridiculous price at the moment - definitely the best $20 wine I have tasted...

Fwiw I opened one last Thursday, see how it's faring etc.
Obviously drank young, but enjoyed it.
Only managed to drink half the bottle though, and left the re-corked bottle out (cool conditions) until Sat night.
By which time it showed very nicely indeed.
