I will drink to that !!!! Woo Hoo

Penfolds wines always hold up over all and the penfolds reward for patience does not disect when the fruit removes itself! It often gives you an up to date view of how the wine is traveling, there is nothing wrong with drinking a leathery,older secondary flavour wine but overall most people prefer t...

A 98 Rockford Basket Press recently was top notch. Surprisingly so. Brucer i am Not surprised at all , maybe we should rerun the poll and get a more up to date opinion and where the wines are standing today ? I have had a 96 broken wood Shiraz which I thought wasn't bad but you can really see it sl...

Completely agree with what you said about the poll, I think 4 years on we are seeing the 96's dropping away and the 98's are still powering along as predicted

Also he thinks their was other wineries...

monday the 17th January or tues 18th ,And to be honest with you i dont care where we go or the theme .

all input is great .

REgards Dazza

G'day Given the somewhat uncertain response here, and the total absence of responses on the other forum, I think I will give these plans a miss. It's obviously not for everyone. If someone wants to arrange an alternative offline, then go for it. Theme. location. price, etc all up for grabs. Cheers ...
