The Auswine Forum

Tim, that sounds pretty unfortunate. We left around 4 pm and it was quietening down, and I thought they were working quite late tonight. Apart from the awfulness of the mud and possible toxicity of the water, I have to say the cleaning operation itself is well-organised and well-staffed despite the ...

I'm very pleased to have had a call from Darryl, and currently getting organised to go out to Milton to salvage our wine early this afternoon.

I'm wondering if Kennards have seen this forum, as they have now provided more info on their website, including details of power and aircon, and a photo!
