I'm not sure why you would expect to find them there, they are mostly sold direct or via good independent e-tailer. Gavin (your host) often has them, but not sure if he does currently. I won't mention which of his competitors are offering them, but a quick google should point you at the Mike Press web site.
Cheers

Great white here - 2008 Sauvignon Blanc: http://www.auswine.com.au/product.asp?ProdID=125124
Seamless red here - 2006 Cabernet: http://www.auswine.com.au/product.asp?ProdID=125127
Some of the 2007 Cabernet and the very Italian 2006 Merlot here: http://www.topdropwines.com.au/Our_wines.html

The cab 06 sold out at cellar door some months ago. The cab 07 may not take long to sell out too, so I've asked Judy to reserve a case for me. The shiraz 07 sold out in a few months, the 08 probably will too when it's released. Some consider the cab 07 vintage better than the 06 - I'm not entirely convinced and it seems, Adair, that you like the 06 as much as I.
Given the value, the limited production, the quality of the wines and Mike's apparent determination to remain fiercely independent, it's doubtful his wines will ever be sold other than through the existing channels, i.e. direct from the winery or through selected quality online retailers.

FWIW, I actually like the 2007 better than the 2006, but I appreciate the smooth appeal of the 2006. Horses for courses!

I searched their website and found none so I'd say not....

AFAIK the cab 07 is still only available from CD but Gavin has some 06 left.

Fair enough, I had a look on there and noticed they weren't listed. Damn sure I've seen them in there in the past though, darn tootin.
