Still showing its class. Need my 2011's to arrive so I stop drinking the the 2010's which I think will be all class in 10 years +. Bought a bunch of these myself. Still surprised PdB did not make any crus in 2010! Have samples of 2011 crus arriving in the new year, and I reckon Barbaresco is a bit ...

Another option in the CBD is Mezzo but I don't think they allow Friday and Saturday night.

Seamstress in the city. $25/bottle corkage.
Scopri Carlton
Easy Tiger Collingwood

When are they releasing the Special Bin 888? Should retail in China for around $5,000 I would think.

Get well soon Luke, and see you down here later in the year for the end of year shindig?

Take care

From the man who is offended but the term 'Wifey'

MW Wines in Abbotsford. Only limitation is acess after hours and on weekends - they are open 9am-1pm on Saturdays. 20 case lockers available.

Also voted. Do you get to win something nice?

Maybe Jeremy could also define 'in the near future'?

This is hilarious.

This is very funny. Has JO thought of getting into stand up?

Not sure I would call anyone who can make $50 mil+ a year from partying stupid

Dear Monghead with the amount of booze you buy from UWC I'm not surprised they replaced it without question

Never had a problem BYOing at Esposito.

Or an 80th

Decanter = horse in reverse? Bit like some of the nags I bet on last Saturday!

Only 1 experience with Fosters but a good one. Corked 83 Grange replaced with 02 on the spot at Fosters head office in Melbourne.

Kalleske 1875 - goes into the Johann Georg

Would also recommend City Wine Store on Spring St and La Vita Buona in the city square for afternoon drinks and Supper Club (above CWS) for late night drinks.

In the CBD - Oyster & Seamstress

Tonight....it's a 2007 Domaine de Chassorney Bourgogne Chardonnay ‘Bigotes’ Winemaker Frédéric Cossard has set up his domaine just on the outskirts of Saint Romain and is recognised as one of the finest producers of natural wine in Burgundy. His vineyards are organically farmed a...

06 now all gone at CD. 04 in magnum available at Stonewallers CD.

And not being interested in sheep

GFC - it's being blamed for everything else.

Probably not the sort of wine that is going to show its best in a tasting IMHO...Like sticking a Mount Mary Quintet in with a dozen Coonawarras for eg poor poor excuse in the context of that lineup (which was only 10 wines - we arent talking a wine show here its not gonna get "lost"). The...

Hungarian?

If you're off to St Kilda suggest the Melbourne Wine room or Enoteca on Gertude St if in the Fitzroy area. I've been meaning to go to both, but I never get around to it. Maybe we should organise an off-line and do a sample of both...? Don't go to Gertrude Street Enoteca - they steal your wine.

Thanks guys. Might give it a punt.

Anyone tried this? Any good? Craig or Sue?

I think the limit is 30 quid not 30 dollars.

Thought it was an imperial of the 98?
