I think it's the Koonunga re-labeled for export markets but I'm not sure.

wonder what vintage it is?

maybe something from their bottom less inventory in the US they needed to flog off

I believe they bought a lot of inventory back from their own distributors as well, so there is likely to be some discounting as they try and recoup cash flow over there

Well I've just seen this for sale in Australia...It must come out every so often? This must be their declassified Rawsons or Koonunga....although I can hardly believe that is possible..

Still, 4 dollars isn't bad...I'm surprised they didn't do this for all the extra stuff in the US...re-label it..sell it cheap..maybe it isn't worth the cost to do that though....Or turn it into box wine or something...

Is it lower or higher than Koonunga Hill?
