| | If you feel like buying directly from Australia, contact Gavin Trott at theAustralia Wine Centre. Otherwise, I'd suggest contacting the helpful folks at theSouthern Hemisphere Wine Center in the LA South Coast area. I've had great transactions with both. | | Cheers, y'all | |

| Hey Nikon, I just got an email from Southern Hemisphere Wine Center. Talk about bringing this discussion full circle! From another thread you were looking for some '02 E&E Black Pepper, iirc. Here's today's email from the good guys:
Quote:
We, like many of you, have been waiting patiently for the arrival of the highly reviewed 2002 BAROSSA VALLEY ESTATE E & E BLACK PEPPER SHIRAZ ( 97 pts Wine Spectator ). It has finally made it into our store and we can now proudly offer it on a limited basis. It is extremely limited, so first come, first served, maximum 6 bottles per customer - $69.99 per bottle, $62.99 when you buy 6 bottles.
Happy shopping!  | | Cheers, y'all | |

thats putting it mildly. i've been spending so much time researching wines at night that my girlfriend(who got me hooked on this i might add) thinks there's another woman.  | | | |
