Beat this....

Post by roughred »

Advertised in the local rag on Saturday...

Cleanskins from $20/dozen!

From Lankey's Creek winery near Holbrook. At a rough guess I would suggest these may be smoke tainted 2003's, but I could be wrong.

At $1.66 a bottle I wonder if Dan's can beat that by 10%........

These sorts of deals are discusting - shit for the consumer.

I hope people get cronically sick from purchasing that kind of shit. bloody alcoholics.

Shows the value of blind tasting.
This could well be smoke effected 03 vintage, but I have read tasting notes on some 03 Beechworth wines where the smoke taint is supposedly a bonus. All in non blind tastings too i might add from high profile makers.

Having tasted 1 smoke tainted wine I hope I never have to again.
Its like licking an ashtray.
