A dispiriting special offer
5 Apr 2006 by JR
James Browne, Hartenberg Estate, South Africa: I felt somewhat deflated this morning when I received from winepros.com.au their newsletter advising of a clearance sale of selected "cleanskins" [unlabelled wine] on their sister(?) site of winelife.com.au with the carrot to the purchaser for spending over A$175 on said wines being a free carton of Carlsberg beer clearly promoted as being 330ml in size and with a value of A$39.99!   me: Deflation completely justified. Whereas I’m rather inflated by how many delicious 2005s there are here in Bordeaux at the very top level....
