Does anyone know? Last vintage posted….

My friend got a green crayon with 2020 on it! A new colour guys!

Had a tasting with Chris in his dining/lounge room a few years ago on one of our Barossa trips. An excellent tasting. His great value CR Shiraz at the bottom end all the way through a few of the much more expensive Shiraz wines. Most spent a long time in barrel and were wonderful wines, but needed ...

Hear hear. The Halliday award didn’t look like it changed him one bit. Although, he has started to move up in the world! His tasting room now has ‘tables’
But seriously, one of the treasures of the Barossa at this moment!

Just wondering what is the forum’s thoughts on his wines. He seems to have a good partnership going with Adrian Hoffman and I just tried his Northern Barossa Shiraz. Pretty decent!

Hi all Thanks for your help. It has been a recent build. Since October last year. Didn’t have a chance for it to go through a winter. I do have 3 wine fridges!! ;<) Just wanted to have mass storage for as you guys said, the mid tier wines. Hopefully winter will get to 14-15 deg and it can hold its t...

Hi all. I live in Melbourne and I have a small cellar that I made under my house. I have waterproofed the walls and did some insulation on walls and partial ceiling. Holds temperature at 19-20deg. Daily variance is at most 1 deg. Hot days might go up to 21deg. Unsure what the temperature will be dur...

Hi Andrew

I am looking to do the same with my garage.

What kind of insulation did you use for the walls and ceiling?

Did you need to insulate the floor too?

Advice is appreciated.

Tolpuddle 2013, great concentration and character

Samuels gorge

Well, he has gone back to Singapore and could not take all his wine with him. I am already quite well stocked in the 2013s... And the 2010, 2011,2012,2014 and now 2015s

Noon reserve Shiraz 2010

Been ordering since the 2008 vintage, ordered heaps as usual, 6x 6 packs incl the Shiraz and 2x Cabernet Only got the Cab Mal and Shiz Mat. Very annoyed. It is my firstborn's birth year too. The person on the phone could only say, it is totally sold out, which is a blatant throwaway sentence to get ...

6x tertre rotebeouf 09
1x Diane Madeleine 03 magnum
1x armand Rousseau mazis chambertin 2012

Carob cottage is really affordable if you do 4-5 nights, plus it's a 5 min walk to two hands

My rare chance of breaking out magnums,methinks this year would be
Paradigm hill 07 cols block Shiraz and 03 paringa estate pinot in magnums

Definitely Barossa, farmers market on Saturday morning, Henschke and Yalumba before lunch, roaring forties pizza for lunch, then rockfords (basket press would be available) Hensley farm, torbreck and artisans to round out the day

Thanks all people, I think I am staying in Shenzhen. Is wine in china much more expensive than hong kong?

Hi all, I am having a short business trip to Shenzhen, travelling through Hong Kong. Anyone can tell me where to get a few bottles of nice Bordeaux or Barolo at better prices than the hk airport and australia in General?

Thanks

That's good! I had a sons of Eden Romulus that was corked. Emailed but no response

Noon's Shiraz 2010.... Just because...

The lack of the wendouree mailer is giving me a heart attack!

Thanks all guys. Repairs to car and new tyres has set me back 1k. There goes the wines....

So let's say I can get the mt edelstone at 100, it trumps the st Henri?

Hey all, with all the hype about the st. Henri, is it worth paying that extra 30 plus bucks for the mt edelstone? Anybody tried both and can comment? Feedback much appreciated

Same here. Is it a Melbourne thing?? :p

Next time I will write on my order form, if you are not going to give me cabernet, can I have 3some other bottles. I paid full 6 pack freight for 3 bottles

I remember getting some malbec, unsure of which vintage, I started buying in 2008 vintage. I remember sending that letter too, was really happy they said yes.

Only ever tasted their shiraz mataro, and even that 2009 was a huge monster.
