Hey Aussie wines are cheap here, like $6 or $7 a bottle, our stuff is waaay over priced! ;D


They obviously don't sell any Penfolds Vintage Grange over there, up to $50,000 for 1 bottle.... :o ;D Even the 2006 vintage is $500 a bottle...

That Grange is no joke!  I've had it (newer vintages) and that stuff is the sh1t!  I like the RWT myself.. I had a roommate who worked for Beringer (now owned by Fosters) and they carried all the Penfolds...needless to say I drank well for a few years!

Matua, it's a new winery but getting good press on their wines, they also give away free key rings!

Their stuff is pretty good.  Another Foster's owned winery...good cheap bottles.
