Yeah mate there’s plenty of that great value drink now wine.

There were 3 bottles of 1991 Petaluma Merlot, no attributes so levels should be in the neck, starting bid $19.
I might ring up tomorrow and see if there still available.

Cheers Con.

2 x 2011 D'Yquem 375ml - great vintage, ideal size.
3 1967 Chiltern VP (thrilled to get these - Durif VP made by Keith Gayfer - vineyard long gone, with Hume H'way swallowing it up.)

[BHCC1]

Gee that Gayfer’s wine brings back memories. First wine I ever bought was the 1971 Gayfers Durif VP - purchased from the winery and still have one in the cellar.

Nice pick up, were these from MW I don’t think I seen them?

You don’t want to swap one of your 67’s for one of my 65’s and the 56 Club Tawny, better still if you’re in Melbourne we can open one each and compare.

Cheers Con.
