When I first started drinking at the Hilton ( South Road ) when I was 16 an old bloke, Peewee, sat at the end of the old oval shaped front bar in the middle of the room drinking $2 pints of Port all night, every night.

Re: Your poison of choice?
Ventured into my local Dans yesterday. Picked up a few bottles of Riddoch Coonawarra 2014 Cabernet Sauvignons for $16 absolute bargain. Cracking one tonight to wash down the roast lamb.

Wirra Wirra Adelaide Shiraz to go with the home made pizzas.
Thanks to @DOC who put me on to this. I’ve never had a $10 bottle of red so good.
