On a positive note (it's been a good day today) - the variety of wine available and price is impressive here. I was delighted that my favourite wine of all time - Brown Brothers Shiraz was only $18 here when I was buying it for £18 in the UK. It is currently $15 in New World and was $11 in Woolies a little while ago. So - any more recommendations from all you more experienced NZ wine drinkers out there (Carol & Kenny?????? ) Church Road was it?


We also tried a Hardys Shiraz that was $7 in P & S and it was so good - we had to go back and get the last 6 bottles in the shop!!!!!

What wines do you recommend NZ or Australian that you can get easily here?
