So tonight we were going to try 3 of a kind – all Shiraz from Penfolds.  but since the most expensive on was on sale and ended up being nearly CHEAPER than a cheapy from the same brand – so we ended up having 3 South Australian Shirazes.

Our cheaper wines were the standard Taylors Shiraz and the Penfolds Koonanga Hill.

Our splash out of the Penfolds Bin 128 at retail price of $34 a bottle was decidedly average.  We all agreed we could probably have been happy just with the other bottles… but now we know.
