The Auswine Forum

greetings & felicitations - I'm looking for wine clubs/events where the participants bring their own bottles (masked or unmasked).
There's no shortage of excellent wine dinners, tastings, courses etc where you attend & consume set wines for a (usually) substantial fee - I've accumulated a largish wine cellar and need to find like-minded souls with whom to share the spoils of our collectors' passion. If I keep going to events where I drink new wines rather than make inroads into my own stash, in a few years I'll be stuck with a heap of wines past their drinking windows.
Live in the Essendon area, happy to travel reasonable distances. Any info/suggestions welcome.

Offlines, my boy, offlines!

what does that mean? who can we join one of these "offlines"?!

Offlines are when some of this forum's contributors get together, usually planned well in advance, at a BYO restaurant & bring interesting bottles of their own wine to be shared - speaking of which, does anyone have any inkling of whether/when there'll be a MELB offline soon??
