Numb again

Sounds good.

Iam still getting to Know wine in Australia. I know South African Wine well but still getting to know the local selection.

It would love it if we all had a get toghether. ohhhhh can you imagine the insanity.

I have a selection of M&Ms so you are covered hun

It would be nice wouldnt it @Pollyotter 😀 But we do the best we can remotely I guess.

Australia has lots of good wine regions. What state are you in? That is, State within Aust, as opposed to a drunken state. 😆 Tas, SA, WA, NSW, VIC all produce good wines. QLD have some wineries, but not as good as other States (in my opinion). NT .. I have no idea if they grow grapes, though I think its doubtful.

I have spent 5 weeks in South Africa and Zimbabwe in 1983. I visited a couple of wineries out of Capetown at the time. They produce some very good white wines. Not sure about reds, wasnt really into red back then. But these days I prefer red to white.

I stay in QLD and I am still to find a red that speaks to my liver and of course my tastebuds!

awww Zimbabwe was so briliant back then and they had good produce as well.

I love Red wines even if i love them too much sometimes.

Unhhh yes Capapiontage is fabulas xhoxolate block is yassss and then there is the African Java... that has me drooling already .

Ha ha @Pollyotter ... you sound like a connaissoir? QLD does not have a lot to offer regarding wines. Bearing in mind that everyones tastes differ dramatically.

My thoughts are that you cant go too far wrong with a Barrossa (Sth Aust) red wine, or anyTAS or WA white wine. And there are a couple of good NSW regions with very good reds and whites (Hunter and Riverina). VIC also has some good wine regions.

On the whole, I think price is generally a good guide for what you get in Australia.

Ha ha ha @Pollyotter ... Thats okay ... M&Ms it will be then. Though Im not a big fan of tequila. Its okay in some cocktails though. 🍸🍷🍹

By the way ... I loved both Zimbabwe and South Africa.
