FROM A GATHERING ON TUESDAY 14th MARCH 2000
Oddbins - The High Street Wine Merchants of the Year, for almost
every year since dot! This chain of off licences has revolutionized
the retailing of wine, with their bright Ralph Steadman doodles,
walls of wine on well labelled shelves, and knowledgeable sales
staff. They were pioneers of Australian and other New World wines
but also retain a wide interest in traditional winemaking areas.
We will taste only a tiny percentage of their range but hopefully
enough to confirm that the power of their buying weight can give
us great value for money.
