Richmond FC - have they lost the plot?

Hawthorn's succession plan for Clarko

Caro’s ‘stars aligning’ puppy related moment during the week.

On the Cocktail Cabinet for Prince Wine Store we taste a couple of great non-alcoholic gins including;

Brunswick Aces Sapiir

Banks Botanicals

Congratulations to this week's winners of the double pass to a Prince Wine Store Wine Appreciation course.

David Silvana – has even written us a poem as his entry!
Magil Estate (foothills of Adealide) it has to be,
An urban vineyard, that has shiraz to a tee,
The tour starts at the underground cellar,
Led by a funny, educated fella,
Followed by wine tasting at the cellar door,
Tasted ten wines, but wanted more,
The Penfolds' collection is a must,
Definitely is a brand you can trust!

Patrick Hill
My most memorable wine experience was finding a bottle of plum wine at the back of a cupboard that my Ukrainian grandmother had bottled 20 years earlier and forgot all about. We shared the bottle that evening and talked about memories of growing up in her house which she and my grandfather had built themselves in the 50's. This happened a couple of years before she passed, so it's a memory that I will cherish forever.

WIN - a double pass to the Prince Wine Store Introductory Wine Course, valued at $350 per person! All you need to do is head to www.icanwin.com.au and tell us in 100 words or less about your best wine experience or adventure.
