Familia Zuccardi Santa Julia Malbec 2007
There’s a $7.99 RRP sticker on the back of the bottle, but since the exchange rate went pear shaped there’s been a slight price rise. It’s another Woolworths El-cheapo import.

Westend Estate 3 Bridges Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
The small print on the front label notes Winemakers Selection (sans apostrophe). It’s slowly dawning on me that the Riverina region is under-valued in terms of its red wine production. But then, I’m on a value kick at the moment.

Fox Creek Shadows Run Shiraz Cabernet 2007
I’m sure there’s plenty of us looking for a big, solid, juicy red at a keen price? I’m not mind you - I want to get into my cellar and start making some inroads..it’s a problem I have, although admittedly not a bad situation in which to find oneself.

DogRidge The Pup Shiraz 2007
Never be put off by an 89 point rating, especially when the price is right. It’s a bronze medal or a ‘good or very good’ rating in most word based scales and usually represents a tasty drop. I’d often rather drink this sort of wine than many higher scoring ones, if that makes any sort of sense.

DogRidge The Pup Cabernet Merlot 2007
When tasting wine, even though there’s a vast amount to get through, I still like to be thorough. I had this modestly priced wine a couple of points lower last night, but on re-tasting a day later it has come together very well. Obviously still a pup.
