Tried the 98 Bowen Ampelon or Rockfords SVS range

Post by DavidL »

Anyone tied the 98 Bowen Estate Ampelon or any of the Rockfords SVS range. Would love to get my hands on a few bottles of the Ampelon. Can anyone help?

Hi David, welcome to the forum.

It normally pays to use the search function above with a key word or two first before asking for TNs (the key thing to remember is if your using more than two words put an "and" in between them to try and limit the hits to posts containing both of them, and not just either of them).

Using the search function above with 'Ampelon' generates 8 hits with several useful TNs. There's more hits with 'SVS' but still less than 50 to go through - I think there's a good chance you'll find something of interest there.

Cheers,
Ian

Hi n4sir

Thanks for your advice. Really appreciated. I am desperately trying to get my hands on some reasonably priced Bowen Estate Ampelon 98. Where would I go on the forum site to get my message out to the wide audience?
Thank again....

David,

I know Steve (707) loves the Ampelon, but I have tried it a few times and every time I try it, it looks worse and worse. The last time I opened a bottle 3/4 of it was left and none of the four of us wanted to drink it!
Cheers
