So the Halliday Wine Companion web site has just been "upgraded" but nothing seems to work - does anyone else have the same experience? I changed my password, as required, and now it seems to have forgotten that I'm a member. Trying to login just takes me to the "become a member" screen, and...

As we rapidly approach the end of another financial year filled with credit card points earned through the enjoyment of good food and wine, and occasional infrequent travel inside metal tubes, it's time to come together as a group and celebrate our passions. Dinner 8pm, Saturday 23 June 2018...

Hi guys, it seems like a while since we last did a Hobart catch up, last one was a wine tour from memory. In light of the Craft beer, whiskey, craft Cider and Gin explosion in Hobart I would like to float this idea to gather any interest? I am happy to arrange tastings and tours and help with...

There was some conversation in the Barossa this weekend that it has been a while since our last MEL dinner, so boomy thought we should remediate this. Please bring a bottle of [red] wine to share. It's not a competition to bring the most expensive, or highest rated, but a few of us will bring...

Inspired by frequent CBR visitor @Mattg post about local wineries: How much interest would there be for an AFF meetup at one of the local (Murrembateman?) cellar door restaurant's ? Considering how long it takes to get there, and most only open for lunch (or breakfast), the usual after work...

Anyone Going ? Reads like fun….

I need to get around 10 dozen cases of wine from DRW to BNE. Does anyone have experience checking wine with QF. I know many of you move wine via HLO. I typically take 6 bottles in my carry on each trip. However, I unexpectedly need to move larger quantities more quickly. The QF rules about...

So, I picked up a second-hand modular wine rack off eBay for a complete steal - with the added bonus of some included wine. I haven't yet researched them online, thought I'd throw the names up here and see if anyone has any experience with them. Apart from Montara, Jacobs Creek and Peter...
