We have a bottle shop in Woy Woy north of Sydney, where the owner loves fine wine, but they don't seem to get bought much. Very good for treasure hunting.Alontinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03303383808768521404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8538446535011951676.post-53300516699734598582010-05-31T18:31:39.727+10:002010-05-31T18:31:39.727+10:00With you on this one Alontin.

The 2004 (95pts) was the best I've had, either from this maker or Australia for that matter. Fortunately, thanks to the lag evident in interstate wine vintages in Adelaide's retail market, I know where I can still buy bottles of the 04 for current retail price! That lag does come in handy sometimes! The same store also has bottles of Pipers Brook's very good 2004 Riesling sitting on their shelves.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Chris PChris Plummerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01038102858732379506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8538446535011951676.post-30453515204485716262010-05-31T08:14:25.018+10:002010-05-31T08:14:25.018+10:00Thank you for this, and welcome to my blog.

There's also a relatively recent wine called Aja from Hunter Valley, created specifically for asian food, made at Tempus Two. http://www.ajawines.com.au/Sarah Winehousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14042026676010342045noreply@blogger.com
