| 1 | Sancerre 2001 $15 Curvee Moulius Bales | "Yummy" -- this went great with the smoked oysters in a salmon sauce |
| 2 | Shiraz Cabernet 2001 $13 Penfolds Koonunga Hill | Needed a bit of breathing, but quickly became quite nice Liked by all -- had some "fire power" |
| 3 | Cabernet Shiraz 2000 $11 Buckeleys | Got much better with breathing "Would be great with hot dogs and beans" |
| 4 | Shiraz - McLaren Vale & Longhone Creek 2000 $19 Rosemont Estate "Show Reserve" 24 months in the barrel, both old and new Oak | Very well received by all. A really nice, well rounded Shiraz |
| 5 | Series 2000 "Sweet Harvest" Videl Blanc Sakonnett $??? (Probably $15-20) | A very nice dessert wine |
| 6 | Sauternes 1982 Chateau Roumieu $??? (Probably $40-70 if available now) | From Dorcee Rommer's cellar "Thank you Dorcee..." This was just outstanding, felt like chocolate and gold going down... |
