Making shwarma spiced roast leg of lamb. Figured the wine should be roughly from the same region

PJM and I are enjoying this right now on QF653 SYD-PER. First time I’ve tried it. Impressed.

Very drinkable now. I had a choice of 19/20/21 in fact so choose the 19 which gets good reviews. Lovely nose, lavender, plumb, cassis, nice tannins.

Wine markups at Otto are fairly high (like most restaurants) but the Sassicaia, while very expensive, was not much more than retail.

Main thing I like about Otto is they are BYO. Not easy to find a good restaurant in BNE that offers BYO these days.
