My dear friend recently returned from New Zealand and brought back some scrumptious wines...
You Aussies or New Zealanders; got any great wine suggestions?

A white????????????????????
Now for the real stuff.....
The world's greatest red is from the Margaret River but you can't buy it in the stores ....sorry, stillconcerned.....it's a private bin brew and only available by mail order.
The second best shiraz is made by Mr Bliss (the husband of Blissisignorance) [whatabout that for a wrap, eh, peaches???]
Now for the others.......
You have only a limited selection available in the States, so you could try a Penfolds shiraz.
More later.....mustt dash.
