Virgin hills claret 2001, unfortunately not around anymore but found this at auction for a bargain. Drinking amazingly well for its age. Still has bright fruit + tertiary leather/earth flavours but with good fresh acidity.
I've got a smaller hisense as well. Found a trick to squeezing an extra bottle per shelf :). Also position the labels facing sides so they don't scratch on the upper shelf.
Thenowair is another brand available in Melbourne(a company called Vine and Vault use it). Im about 12 months away from getting a house built and will be looking for a conditioner post handover as well.
Worth keeping an eye out on the BWS clearance items (Cullen/Mosswood may drop further tmr). I picked up some Ata Rangi for $65 today (with 10% 6pack) - not sure if this is a rock bottom price but I had a giftcard to use up as well. WB black ($65) and Shadrach ($60) are alrdy at half price.
I'm in nz right now and visited Rippon. Bought the riesling and osteiner (hybrid of Sylvaner and riesling). Really good wines, tasting range and view attached. Remember to make a booking online.
Agree website sucks now. But found this, 20k point for 6 pack of wynns black 2015 (one of the best vintages). Direct link provided to save u from the horrible search function now.

Think alot of ppl bought the Balnaves Tally last time it was on sale (but mystery case). Looks like it's back with the 2016. I had the 2010 last night and it's awesome.

Its a good thing to have really good insulation and its fairly cost effective. Regular wall insulation is ok, but getting foam is more ideal. I'm also doing a new build and getting the builder to put in a wine room (im following the attached design). I asked the builder to put in wall batt...
Go for 2m if u can. Racks either side will be around 400mm x 2 =800mm. And then I'm assuming u would add some decent foam insulation, maybe 60mm each side =120mm. Leaves u with 2000mm-800mm-120mm= 1080mm corridor in between. This will be much more comfortable and ergonomic.
