  How reliable are the Halliday ratings?

    I'm not a big drinker, but in my experience, JH's 94pt is pretty much the entry level to a reasonable red. On white, it's even trickier.

    That being said, there are quite a few wines that don't get rated and they are really good - sometimes without the price tag associated with a rating.

  Can thoroughly recommend Winestar. If you have the Amex offer, go ahead and give them a shot. Can't go wrong with any of their wines.

    Just in case I do go wrong, is there a red that you can recommend. Prefer $150 or close, to maximise rebate %, and a dozen to get the free freight.

      You could try the Mike Press:

      Shiraz:

      Cab Sauv:

      Or try their 'Star Dozens' - they are pretty safe bets at a good price.

    Not only that, but Winestar have a strange habit of getting the wine to you stupidly fast - often the next business day (and that is interstate)!

      Yes, they don't muck around. They use Fastway, and I'm generally not a fan, but all my Winestar deliveries have been very good.
