    Yesiree, it's better than good, and at a tenner, even better.

    The Shotfire Quartage used to be an absolute stunning wine at a decent price that i always bought about 6 to 10 years ago but I tried one recently, maybe an '18 or ,19 and it was garbage. So ended my affair with the thorn Clarke stable.

    I have had one only of the Remarkables and thought it was superb. Five remain. The level of complexity is certainly why the normal retail is $38 but for a tenner, great stuff. So on a similar theme and isn't it funny how you look for the same varietal and style after you realise what a bargain...

    A good chardy is a wonderful thing and I think if you can get one that is more sublime than good then it ranks as high as a shiraz that is sublime. Good is good but sublime is a shade less than lime.

    Thanks for thinking of me. It is a truism and I have had about 4 botts of the Angoves Riesling traminer that i scored 2 cases from grays, $44 then $29, and it is damn good. Really damn good. A tinge of sweet would not suit many but good is good. Anything for a fiver that is better than good and...

    Coincidences. Ten minutes ago I was the second and succesful bidder on 12 bot of patritti sparkling shiraz. $44 the case. Add the $12 freight etc and it comes to just over a fiver per bottle. Found a lonely review pre purchase by a South Oz critic which said at $24 is was well underpriced...

    Had this today and shared with 3 others. I hope many got on this deal because the fizzy stuff is magnificent. Elegant, full of finesse and a bargain at the price. I haven't yet looked for top up but it's a wine of the year contender.

    Saving on postage too. Well done. Stunning price, hopefully the rest falls into place. My interest in this one is more of the complexity on offer in this cordial of a drink really. But like the better products, good is good no matter the price. I look forward to your comments.

    Let's compare notes wandd...and see whose turns up first. I haven't had a SS for ages, and used to buy more Peter Rumball earlier in life at about $19.99 than I did milk. The PR price is still in the ballpark 30 years later. We've all had the sickly sweet types, the lack of body types, the...

    I haven't had the first 6 pack delivered yet strangely. But based on my research, it seemed a great proposition. The other case of the tramy rizza just went for $34. I didnt go up from 29, otherwise it would have been 39. The 34 earlier was good. But only based on pedigree with the talkarook. I...

    I was driving past their gate this afternoon, just a quiet day at Healesville. No juice till I got home. Just had another bot of the Angoves Traminer Rizza 2019 thru grays with a BBQ dinner. Can I report I snagged a case in the last fifteen minutes for $34, and await a buy of another , currently...

    Olympicwiz, a great pick up. I don't know whether you bought any Nightfall product before but I did a 6pack of the 2015 Nightfall Cabernets if that was its name. The wine was $80 down to $25 so looking at the value aspect, this one today comes in at the same sort of discount. We all get excited...

    Dannys bumped up the price of that Vigneti Del Saole Soave 2010 from members $9 to normal $12 but i hesitated on dropping in and asking whether I could get another dozen at the old coin. Had one on Saturday night at a local Thai, and it was even better than last time. Served a bit cooler, it...

    We are all human but the drug man appears to have filled your two scripts correctly. It's when we put a 200mcg eutroxsig label onto a 200mg lamotrigine box that we start needing the anxiolytics. Also, you would be surprised that people swallow pills with other people's names on them which was an...

    I have read back only the odd pages from now back to something like early 2019, pre covid and I notice your earlier comments. Let me know of the initial diagnosis, and thankfully you have done well. I think this might be my third post, but surprisingly and I don't know why since I had post one...

    Thanks, went a bit off the side with illustrious stuff. I was talking coincidences in the morning above and next thing you know i received one of those ' you've received a reply message" from a health forum in aff . Didn't know much about it. So clicked on and I possibly started it with my...

    Yes , look up Mark Handler, lucky to be alive. Nice odd fellow who did a stint, came out and got shot in the head when someone wanted to procure his unlicensed expertise. Then there were my days and decades in Lygon St in the era. Maybe that's why I married an Italian wife. She gave me an offer...

    Nice to snare some cheapies. You and I must have dreamt of Shakespeare last night as we are both pushing those letters on the keyboard. I have Thai for 4 this Sat night so out will come another Soave.

    Last night had that 2020 Italian sauve and a couple of glasses. Beautiful wine indeed. Better than last Saturday nights trial. It was tasted a bit cooler this time so i reckon that sparked up the freshness appeal. But for the $9 dannys members price, this is easily a magnificent buy. A full...

    Oh what a small world it is. But I wouldn't want to paint it. The Micelis have three daughters, and a son, he is a GP working in Mornington and Mum is the cellar door lady plus a homekeeper. Their oldest Lucy is quite a character, loves a drink and I had the pleasure of working with her for...
