Got given a bottle of 2011 Penfolds Grange recently.
Should I drink it?
Thinking, I got given a bottle of Grange for my 40th, now fifteen years gone.
It's under the stairs.
Should I drink that?

I think it would be best kept for a "special occasion"..
It's a nice drop but to be honest we had a bottle after about 5 schooners some years back..so I can't give an accurate assessment

Searched out the Grange under the stairs - 1990 .
Found another boxed 1999 Shiraz I didn't know was there.
Might shut myself in down there for a while.

Yes. Watch out for that trap, Nozza. You can save it and save it for something special, and then end up opening it one night when you are as drunk as a monkey cos it seems like a brilliant idea. I suggest you bring it to "our" cabin for the next road trip.

Not tonight but last night in Port Fairy.

Ordering desert, was going to go for cheese but desert wine featured.
I'm not a fan of desert wine, or fortified, but ordered based on the name.




Magnificent.
Had one glass, bought a bottle.
