Spectacular
bargains as wine
industry sheds
its
You can cash in on spectacular wine bargains at Farmer
Bros as wineries of all sizes struggle to shed a surplus of
superb quality wines. The pickings have never been so rich
... a result of plantings in premium areas pouring on stream
just as sales collapse.
A Clare Valley Shiraz for S2.99 by the dozen
When did you last see an oak-matured Clare Valley Shiraz
for $2.99? What a bargain Brown's Bin 60 Hermitage 1988
is. Stanley-Leasingham winemaker, Chris Proud, tells us
the wine's made from rich, ripe Clare Shiraz aged in oak
passed down from the 'Domaine' range. The result is a full,
soft wine with tonnes of rich, peppery shiraz flavours with a
long, gently tannic finish. It really is astoundingly good.
Rush for this little gem at $3.49 a bottle, reduced to $2.99 by
the dozen.
Also available at the same price is Browns Bin 60 Chablis...
a crisp, dry Clare Valley/ Padthaway semillon from the 1988 •
vin'age.

David Farmer
Penfold's Kalimna Vineyard, 4 kilometres north of Nuriootpa in
the Barossa Valley, is source of some of Australia's greatest red
wines: Grange Hermitage, Bin 707, and many other one-off
classics like the Bin 60A of 1962, perhaps the greatest red ever
made in .this country.
In 1986, the Shiraz yield from Kalimna vineyard was less than 2
tonnesa hectare... producing reds of exceptional powerand concentration
... like the 1986 Kalimna Bin 28.
I've never tasted anything like it at the price. It's a superb red for
quite long term cellaring, and reasonably priced at S9.99 a bottle,
reduced to $8.99 by the dozen. Drop in to any Farmer Bros store
for a taste.
