12 x various Wild Duck Creek Estate


Add
12 x St Hallett Blackwell 375ml (thanks for the tipoff Deano)
6 x various Warrabilla
6 x various Majella (limit of three Cabernet this year)

That's it for me for 2009. Have gone over my full year budget already :cry:

1 bottle of Domaine Trintignant Chateauneuf-du-Pape 07, bought from Jean Trintignant's cave near the town square in Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2 days ago, after tasting his 05, 06 and 07. His 05 is stunning now (one of the finest wines I've tasted), but 07 should become even better given enough time.
Cheers,
Mike

That Kiss Shiraz '07 is bloody good gear. We had a taste of the Hell Hole 07 at the Syd.Food and Wine Show, and that's pretty shmick, too.

Yes, I have been bad...

The Granges were a little less than $450 each. I know, too much, but when I'm enjoying them in 2035+, I will probably (hopefully) not be regretting this any more...

Cheers,

Monghead.
