Drlev how much was the Quaff cooler from ebay?

Hi Wayno

Is the 00 Hofmann sold out at cellar door or for Stonewallers as well?

I love all of Noons wines and what he stands for. However when if ever will Drew move as most other wineries have and put his prices up (also given the very low volume in next years releases). He is so sincere and really cares about his customers. Your views on the above and comments on the Noons ra...

Big month for my credit card - need to sneak the deliveries into my cellar without my wife noticing: -

6 x Rockford BP
3 x Punters Corner Sovereign Cab
6 Noon Reserve Cab
6 Noons Reserve Shiraz
4 x Wendouree Shiraz Mataro
6 Balnaves Cab
6 Turkey Flat Shiraz

Hi Griff actually both its still holding up very well with years left in it and yes it was a bargain. I think they priced it incorrectly (non reserve instead)

Went to a local country bottle shop in SA to get a bottle of wine for my wife and I for our dinner and noticed Fox Creek Reseve 1996 Shiraz at $16 per bottle. Fortunately I bought the lot unfortunately there were only 18 bottles available. I was 1 happy camper. That was 5 years ago and every bottle ...

Hi Bob Schild Shiraz entry level drink now and decant for at least 1hour or cellar up to 5 years. Cheers David

anyone tried the releases

Has anyone tried the current release Rifle Range Cab Sav?

Hi Dave How do you rate the SVS Hofmann? What is the price? Good value for the money? thanks David

Hi Bob My dearest friend is the GM of Schild Estate. If you have specific questions eg vintage etc let me know and I will provide you with some feedback. Cheers David

1996 Wirra Wirra The Angelus Needed 24 hours to open up. A very enjoyable drink the following day 18/20

2000 E & E. Great drinking beautifully now, lots of fruit and a long finish 18.5/20

1994 La Chapelte Hermitage - Corked. Very dissapointing

Hi What is everyone ordering this year? How does everyone rank the BP?

Hi All can any one shed some light on the future of Wendouree and what that will do to back vintage prices? Also anyone tried this years releases yet. In regards to Rockfords and idea when the mailer is coming out?

Hi I tried the chuthbert on Saturday at CD. Not bad but needs time.

Deano what wines were on offer for stonewallers at Rocky's? and did you try the current release shiraz and cabernet at Turkey Flat? If so how do they compare to the 04's? thanks

I am thinking of buying a few bottles and would love some feedback on the wine and vintage if anyone can help thanks

How much will the Cuthbert Cabernet 05 be and what will the allocation be for mailing list customers - Has anyone tasted the wine and be in a position to provide some feedback

Can anyone shed some further light on the 05 Balnaves Cabernet e.g. ageing potential, tasting notes etc etc

Who has recently received their wendouree order and what colour line did you have on your order form?

You bugger. Is red or blue higher up the food chain? what did you receive vs. what you ordered?

Who has been turned off ordering due to the high alchohol? What if anything would recommend I order this year?

Any other TN of the current release TF wines would be sincerely appreciated before I place my order

Any Adelaide resident with the blue or red stripe got their order??

Is that THE Tim Smith? The yum cha addict who LOVES china??

jordon thanks for your reply. What would you compare these wines to. I haven't tried them before just got a few bottles of Kalleske Shiraz 04 in the cellar.

Can get a bottle of 04 and 05 for $100. Whats the verdict of these tw wines as I normally don't pay more than $50 for a bottle. thanks

I usually buy the seven acres, creek block and cabernet every year but these reviews don't sound compelling. I have to buy without tasting so would love any thoughts on the high alchohol and the reviews for these wines thanks

The mailer is out. What are your views on the wines on offer. Can anyone read between the lines of Michael Waugh's reviews????? What will you order???

Hi Thanks for great write ups and images. Very disapointed to hear about the 04 Wendouree Shiraz as I have 6 bottles in my cellar
