The Auswine Forum

Ps. It appears the 2006 vintage is starting to be be sold as cheaply by the same initial e-tailers as this one. Another major trophy/gold medal winner on the show circuit with a $54 RRP being dumped as a cleanskin at (I'm guessing) something close to cost by Constellation. Why would Constellation b...

I have just purchased a house up in Highbury SA, and as ive been driving home I have seen a shop called Moving Juice (on Payneham Rd). It looks like an upmarket bottleshop, but from reading their website they seem to say they are a cellar door and even have their own wine. Anyone had any experiences...

Maybe its time to upgrade to phpBB 3

Just to update people, its been close to 12 months since I purchased my Keg! Its been fantastic, I have kept it topped up at all times even when drinking a fair bit out of it I never leave it bellow the three quarter mark. My port is amazing, mellow and mature tasting. I have put quite a few differe...

Just to update.... I ended up purchasing a Port Keg from the Keg Factory in Tanunda, and the craftsmanship of the keg is fantastic. The tap is a simple spring pressured brass tap, they have options for different size taps etc andd the kegs also come in many different sizes and shapes ... I went for ...

If any reader can advise of any decent 'bulk' muscat or tokay available in the Barossa, I'm looking for some. My 90 litre Octave has had more than it's share of 'the angels share' go missing, so needs topping up.. I hear that morris for a great bulk tawny, thats what I will probably go with on my b...

Scoobth, My mates Dad makes them for the Keg Factory on the way to Rowland Flat. The kegs are first class and attention to detail is excellent. I have organised 7 through them now and all have had no problems or leaks. Thats what I like to hear I will be headding down to Lyndoch for a retreat for a...

A less serious post for the day THE BAROSSA Valley has taken the top spot in the new Australian version of Monopoly, nudging out some of the nation's most recognised landmarks. The new Australian “Here and Now” version of the famous Monopoly board was launched this morning, with the Baro...

... like I said, if you buy it from a good location they will have a booklet all about seasoning etc. See thats the trick, I was looking at possibly buying one from an auction (where clearly I wouldnt get much useful information) ... so it may already be pre seasoned but im still not 100% sure what...

The more I read of your stories and tips the more excited I am about getting my own! Thankyou all for the information! Any new barrel seasoning tips would be nice. Also if its used and has for example stale port in it from a bad mix, what is the best way to clean the insides without ruining the barr...

As much as im sure its a great sight I guess my idea was to keep it within this community.

I wont insult him with drawing attention to those horrible retailers again My appologies!

I will certainly consider what you are suggesting and see how easy I can make it for him to set up. The idea of the wiki is not the site owner to input the data, but for everyone to help contribute and organise it. Freely to be edited by any members of the forum. I will have a look and see if there ...

I know im VERY new here but I thought I would add a suggestion that you might consider looking into. You all have great tasting notes on wines, and you all post and discuss your thoughts. Have you concidered setting up a Wiki page that can be updated by the users so that Any wine that gets notes or ...

so with $15 the O.P. might be able to get a glass and a half?

Hi Graham. Thanks for the link I have not looked at those guys yet, the look like they have a huge range of accessories. The kegs they have listed look the same type as everyone else has been selling. Does anyone have one of these? how good is the tap/valve on them? I have herd of some Aust made keg...

My first real recommendation for this forum.

Richmond Grove Barossa Shiraz 2002
Can be purchased from dan murphies for about $15 a bottle per 6 pack, and it is drinking great right now! Definatly a winner

Vintage cellars have some great tasting notes on it as well.

Im a big fan of Sparkling Red, go for Peter Rumbll but it may be a bit out of your price range, depending where you purchase it from.

I would go for something like Andrew Garrett Sparkling Burgundy, its just great balue and can be grabbed for around $12 a bottle.

As I just went through the signup process I agree with what Louise-vin just suggested. Real world questions are a great way to see if the person signing up is human. The best suggestion I can recomend is to keep your phpBB software as uptodate as possible. This stops old bugs being exploited and usu...

Hello, Im new here! I did a bit of searching through the threads on this forum and couldnt find anything that helped me. I had a look around the web an found bits here and there, but I thought I was best off asking the experts (thats all of you) I am looking at purchasing a barrel to fill with port ...
