Aussie Shiraz isn't really my thing, but I've had Nine Stones in the past and it's a decent wine at a good price. It's especially suited to those who don't like the "fruit bomb" style.

You should definitely take the opportunity to taste the Stag's Leap, whether you want to pony up the bucks to buy it is another question.

Don't be afraid to spit. Don't be shy about tossing out the remainder of wine you don't like. Make sure to position yourself strategically near the spit bucket before tasting. Save the swallows for the good stuff.

Don't be too embarrassed about last year, though I imagine you won't want to repeat the experience. It is not unheard of for the customers to get drunk at wine tastings. IMO, the stores tend to encourage it because it leads to higher sales. The occasional mishap that results is simply part of the cost of business for them.
