Best's Great Western Bin No. 1 Shiraz 2009, Grampians, Victoria
Victoria, Australia$24.95
2015 + 2016/17
May 2020....all gone now (must have bought minimum 3, maybe more), think I finished off the last bottle maybe fall of 2019. This was a really spectacular shiraz, throughout its entire evolution, but I think I found it most spectacular in its youth.....full of flavour and vibrant. (91+)
Fonterutoli Chianti Classico 2009
Tuscany, Italy$25.95
2015/16...don't remember drinking the 1st one but it's gone
Aug 2020....don't remember drinking the 2cd one either.....perhaps wasn't a memorable wine??

try first one late 2023 (various aging windows...JS says wait 2-4 years, DL says to end of decade, online said 4-5 years in cellar)

Norman Hardie County Unfiltered Pinot Noir 2010, VQA Prince Edward County

???? Can't remember when but have always enjoyed this wine on Christmas eve with Tortiere....so some Xmas past.
Pirramimma Katunga Gts 2007, Mclaren Vale, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$24.95
2016+2017 (18 latest)
April 2016...still not enjoying this style of wine much anymore, too alcholic (14.5) and sweet (typical Aussie). First glass ok but got tired of it with 2cd. Ok to gift remaining bottle.
?? Think I may have had the second bottle in 2017/18 and pretty sure I enjoyed it more than the first, perhaps had mellowed further.

The Paring Red 2007, California

Aug 2020....definitely had many many years ago....cant say I remember a lot about this wine....think Chris really liked it, I was just ok with it, maybe was expecting more.
