what a crazy shop
i just called them and they charge $220/bottle now!:L [/quote]
$220 corkage :dizzy: :dizzy: , it is good enough for a pretty OK wine now
tailawyau 2008-11-11 10:35

btw, have you guys make up your mind on wine to be brought? i will probably take a white and a dessert wine

charging corkage is reasonable for a restaurant as they have invested money (glasses, decanters, services, etc.)
but i would expect a shop requesting $220/bottle should be having sommelier serving your wine to the best condition, instead of giving you a glass and pour the wine yourself:afraid:

Actually, I have negotiated a cheaper corkage from them, but it's all history now. $220/bottle is pricey, but some places do charge $300/bottle.
I'll bring a Penfolds Yattarna tomorrow.

That's already plenty.
可愛老頑童 2008-11-11 22:37
I drink a lot, so I bring 3 bottles :loveliness:
barton 2008-11-11 23:15
Can I bring 2 bottles? L'Evangile and a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc as pre dinner drink.
barton 2008-11-11 23:20
Of course we don't mind, we need more head counts to finish all wines. :P

Wa. Best buy. I didn't see that when I placed order for my wife's upcoming trip.
So, either I placed the order now, and forgo the tax refund, or I'll wait until early January.
They got 5 bottles left at this price. Should I buy them all?
I bought a Glaetzer Amon-Ra 2006 which is rated 97-100 by RP, at less than A$100.

what about a vertical tasting for 3 - 4 vintages:lol
actaully lots of the wine are becoming very tempting, just Bass Philips, Gioconda (the Chardonnay are all sold out!!!), Jasper Hill, Moss Wood, etc., all are very very attractive:funk:
barton 2008-11-18 23:27
Brother DJV, I don't mind paying the 23% tax for that cheap price!:P If you place the order, please left one for me! Thank you! :handshake
