Hi guys!!!

My hubby and I are going to share our 10th wedding anniversary on friday and I am wanting to buy a nice bottle to drink, happy to spend about $80.00.

What do you think???? I WILL NEED A WINE THAT IS PRETTY EASY TO GET BECAUSE OF THE TIMEFRAME!

thanks heaps

Mt Langi Ghiran Langi Shiraz - I've never had a bad vintage of this - last one I tried was 2004 and it was the best of them. I believe the 2005 is a cracker. You should be able to find it for aroud $50-$60.

Your options abound really.

Wynns Michael 2005, is drinking very nicely now and should be within your budget, also 2nd the Ghan.

Mount Langhi Ghiran Shiraz $55
Yalumba Octavius $80 (I don't care what anyone says I like it)
Penfolds St Henri $80
Henschke Mount Edelstone $90ish
Mt Pleasant Maurice O'shea $60ish (bit more towards delicate end of the scale)
