I finally got to try that Yellow Tail chardonnay - pretty good stuff.
Thanks for all the recommendations. I'll be giving them a try when I get a chance.

That there is funny!
Just scored a 1.5l bottle of Mondavi cabernet sauvignon for 9 bucks. Will be trying it tonight.
Pablo explain why it's funny? I suggest you do plenty of research before you reply.
How about some bum wine? Maybe some Night Train, Thunderbird, or Mogen.
BTW if anyone knows where to get Night Train, please PM me. No, really. I need some for a gag gift.

Two edged sword - all the false snobbery with cork and all the bad bum wines without cork. Don't need to do much research for my funny bone.
Wrong as usual. A lot of the premium wines no longer have corks and within 5yrs you won't see wine with corks at all. Didn't do your research did you?
Rancho Zabaco Zinfandel... about $9
And "Black Box" Cabernet. OK, Ok it's in a box, but it's pretty good at 4liters for $16.

Sprintman - you are an idiot. Did you even read what I wrote???? What a dufus. I'm glad all Aussies aren't as unobservant, ignorant, stupid and backwards as you.
"wrong as usual" - that's pretty funny, jerk. Read my words and think.

Mwahaha. Now there's a challenge.
Mesha like NY Bully Hill Space Shuttle Red. It has a plastic cork, is that good or bad?
False snobbery would tell you cork is good. No trap there.
But is there really a wine called; "NY Bully Hill Space Shuttle Red"?

No trap there, either.

He's just been in a contrary mood lately.
I can't remember the brand, but I had a good Shiraz from Oz a while back...while stuffing my face at The Cheesecake Factory in Bellevue.
Anybody like Mead ("wine" made from fermented honey)? They make some good stuff on Lindisfarne, off the NE coast of England.
Good stuff, but be careful for the next morning....

Pablo I know who the jerk is and it sure aint me. You tried to say screw top wines are not good quality. Typical seppo. Still stuck away in the backwoods of Washington what hope do you have, bugger all really. Your just sad you live in a ****hole and I live in ***'s country. Oh and I'm having a $70 Riesling tonight later with a screw cap of course. Na zdorovye

Beati pauperes spiritu.
Whatever. You personify Seppo. Thank G0d most others here don't. Do Svidanye!
See - sprintman you've just laid out the proof for all to read that you are and remain a dolt. I think your worst fault, and totally lacking in your personality type is the ability to actually admit you are occasionally wrong. You seem to portray yourself as self actualizing, when in reality you are a very small, self centered man. And then with the country comparison stuff. Insecure or something? I don't know.
Bless you sprintman - I don't want to yell any more insults. Just go back and read my post, slow down and think about it. It's a bit under the surface, but what I wrote can be understood. I did not say ALL screw top wines are bad. Yes, the very cheapest of the worst happen to be screw top and yes there are very poor wines with corks - and ah ha - cork (wine) snobs have a "false snobbery" about the cork......
And mori quoting Matthew. Wow.
And it's Do Svidanya. Even us backwoods folks know that.

Hi Pablo. Thanks for the link to Bully Hill I was wondering if they have a Web site. I see the Space Shuttle Red is listed near the bottom of their Red Wines list, although they don't show a picture of the label there. I just prefixed NY to the name as it's a New York wine.
