Ahh! I remember reading of bottles costing so much more being consumed at a Qcom investor's dinner! Those were the days! Ashley (An avid but uneducated consumer of $10 wine!)

C2, there are lots of good wines now, with a lack of acetic acid flavour. I don't know Monkey Bay, but Kim Crawford is doing an excellent branding job. Buys grapes grown by contractors and produces to his specifications. The old idea of being a fully-integrated grower to retailer is hard work and expensive. Volumes are huge now and price/quality balance is crucial. Marlborough is indeed an excellent area for growing grapes for wine. I don't know about other than sauvignon blanc. I'm at most a casual drinker. Happy 2006 to Qcommies, the year of 3G taking off in a big way everywhere. Mqurice
