Bought some plonk on the advice of Lindommer - Clonikilla Hilltops shiraz 2008 - outstanding.
Had it with corned beef while I was licking my wounds after the Reds loss and it really hit the spot. I was surprised that it was still 14% alcohol for a cool climate wine but it didn't taste like stewed fruit that so many wines tend to these days.
Not so keen on Nepenthe Chardonnay. Had it with a roasted rack of pork and it was underwhelming. I was suitably admonished by Lindommer for buying un-oaked chardonnay which I will never do again
