Late on a Friday, it's time to liven things up from the VM crew. They certainly have created a mild storm with this one. And as they say, any publicity is good publicity. Look at the list of mof_s on now, including me, and it sure as hell works. However, I believe you are talking about an eight dollar wine here. My brother is the one who says it's worth what you paid for it. What, eight bucks ? I disagree. The 2012 Glenlofty is very good, but it needed a contrast. Out came the 2014 Innocent Bystander McLaren vale gateway vineyard Shiraz 2014. Looking up a few resources, I see BC liked this one. Emminetly darker than the Glen, it is certainly good. Both with osso bucco tonight, both without. Both very good wines, but there has to be a winner. After three hours of decanting, I am a little surprised but the Glenlofty suits MY palate better. Not by much though...back to the footy.
oh yes, with all the argy bargy going on, I sit back after enjoying sampling two really good quality individual, carefully made wines that offered incredible value and think how luck I am........goodnight
