The Auswine Forum

I got mine delivered. No cab sav but some 24b Shiraz which will be interesting to try at some point. Based on this I'll assume I've missed 24b and Cabernet, shame about the 24b as I've never got it, just happy getting the Cab Malbec and straight Malbec which are my favourites I'm in the same boat. ...

There's been similar websites around for years, even though yours does scrape the smaller independent wine retailers I can't imagine anyone would pay any fee because most of those retailers are by far not the cheapest way to purchase wine.

I'd also say, how does this differ to another forum that I am on ( and a few here are on it too), that is based in Canberra and been running for two decades.

That being said, maybe Eastern Peake or one of the single vineyard Pinots from Joshua Cooper? My memory isn't super clear but I...

In my limited experience, they aren't worth the money. In that price range I'd go Bindi Block 5. Got to try the Bindi next to the BP Reserve a while back and the Bindi smoked it for my tastes.
