The Auswine Forum

The cake looks unreal! Happy birthday Dave!

Thanks Felix for the insight,
With PRC's track records its hard to blame people of the world not to believe whatever they try to let the world to know.
Thatsaid, still not warrant you received personal attack from fellow forum mate.

2015 Lake Folly Chardonnay 375ml x12

I like this wine, its big, mouth coating, vibrant, rich which is nothing wrong with it, its delicious, far from some dude tipped the rest into the sink!!!!
BTW, I didn't decant it for 12 hours either, just pour through a Venturi airator into a decanter for 30 mins.
Cheers Boyeah

Zaltos burgundy glass is performing magic on Chardonnays, thanks Gavin for your tip.
The aperitif glass is also good with Sake or even some Cognac
Universal is an excellent all rounder
Couldn't imagine without those babes!
Cheers Boyeah

Grange - good Australian wine indeed, but not that good for the price asking/offering today. Plenty of nice wines around, for $100 , $150, $200. The present Grange price perhaps setting up for the lower range wine to justify their inflated price B 389, 407 for $80, St henri $100, 707 for $300 thats ...

I bought 6 of the 05 Epis Pinot Noir, which I enjoy immensely, back in those days I wasn't really into Chardoanny
These days Chardy is on the top of my list, could imagine how fabulously nice to drink the 05 Chardy today!!!

Tried the digestive with sake and Cognac, both amazing, the nose aroma is just unbelievable.
Cant wait to use other glasses ( white wine, universal, Bordeaux ) with Chardonnay and red wines.

FelixP, Everybody entitles to their own opinion, but please don't try to impose yours onto others. Below is your comments extract from above: "and nor am I rubbishing the brand" " As for 707 v MMQ , I am firmly in the camp of 707, which, even for the $$$$, is a world-class cabernet. I...

Fleur de Bouard 2009 was available en-primeur in Australia for $40, and sold at release for $50. It would kill any recent vintage of MMQ you care to name. Not sure if 2009 Taillefer is available in Australia, but for $30 in HK, you get a wine that is absolutely out-standing, and critically acclaime...

Hi again, Just checking, no one here interested in getting the Mount Mary wines from 2012 vintage? Michael I have ordered a dozen on the 2012 release 4x Qt,4x Chdy, 4x Pnt.

Greenock Creek Apricot Block Shiraz 1999 14.8%
Still surprisingly young, with a slight hint of Truffle, earth, Blackberries, mulberry- medium length follow by a smooth tannic, not a bad drop but could be........

Martell XO Supreme Cognac, Marvellous drop, 20 odd years sitting in the dark corner.

Hi there,
Do you have cork closure to swap some of my screw cap?
