    8/12/2013 12:42:00 AM - A general update my end: 1. All on track; 2. 4-6+ of us are likely to co-operatively buy some Coonawarra Cabs/blends; 3. A move for an initial Chardonnay (or other Whites?) flight is emerging … Penfolds are contributing a Yattana Magnum … some might wish to join that cohort if short on suitable Cabs, or more generally in the interests of vino diversity.

    8/6/2013 7:53:00 PM - Ben, My direct email is j.lowry@bigpond.net.au. Here's what I wrote on Auswine Forum just now. http://forum.auswine.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=13348&p=108389#p108389 Subject to confirmation - mostly re venue - I've nominated 31 Aug 6:30 for 7pm at 'The Moat', Basement, 176 Little Lonsdale St, Melbourne. It's near the corner with Swanston and near the State library and Melbourne Central. Easy access on trams and trains and plenty of parking stations within a few blocks. The manager seems very co-operative, food prices are mid-range [rather than more], and it's a cafe/wine bar with an appreciation for things wine lovers value, including glassware, decanters, spittoons, and room for wines yet to be served. You can find UrbanSpoon data here: http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/71/1631702/restaurant/CBD/The-Moat-Melbourne More details of prices and menus to come when finalised. Chances are some will find clashes with this date, but unless they are widely felt, we'd stick to 31 August as it would be as good as any other date.

    3/13/2013 12:33:00 AM - G'day Bendid, I purchased some 2012 Wickhams Rd Gippsland Pinot today, and saw you've got it too. In fact I think I noticed we've got all of CellarTracker's stock of it. Then I noticed we have QUITE a few wines in common. (U may wish to hit the 'wines in common' tab.) ... What excellent taste you have my wine friend! Cheers, :-) John Melbourne
