Haha... I thought the Giaconda was a good price! Should have known better but I'm an impulse buyer... I do know my Chateau Montrose 2010 purchase was an excellent price however!

Made two excellent, if not rather bank balance denting purchases this week. I might be living on bread and water for the next month but at least it will be worth it Picked up 2x Giaconda Chardonny 2002 for a total of $460, not a bad price, plan on drinking one in the next couple of months and keepin...

I've built my collection (/hoarding) up via Dan Murphy's and other retailers but I would like to start using Langtons to pick up some of the good vintages at a decent...
