Blue Poles Vineyard

@MitchellGlenn @CricketopiaCom @juniorwaugh349 I remember it clearly, listening to the radio on the way to Perth airport. It must have been 40+ that day as asphalt was melting on Horrie Miller Dr - WA was stacked as well with a great team.

@CricketopiaCom @juniorwaugh349 19 fours each 🤔

Steve Waugh (216*) & @juniorwaugh349 (229*) added 464 runs for New South Wales at WACA against Western Australia. Both of them hit 19 fours each. #OnThisDay in 1990.

@FixWine Same email Stu? We have a GW 96 pointer sitting in storage

Winter of Franc is almost upon us! We’re having a Franc festival with flights at FIX then a big tasting at the end of the month. If you make or import a Franc (dominant) wine then get in touch to submit for the consumer tasting.

@MySportsUpdate .

Breaking: The NFL says its plan is to put its electronic system to measure first downs into motion this upcoming regular season in 2025. The chain crew would remain on sideline as backup. But this is finally happening.

@perthobs a really unusual sight - a string of lights going across the sky W to E. Similar speed to a space station. We have a video we can forward. It was ~6.30pm. Any idea?

@TwoCentsRugby I’m all for Gazzamania - but c’mon it’s still the saders 😂😂

My dad just sent me a message to say he hopes that Crusaders win tonight.... Not a first but the old man doesn't say that very often.... #CRUvREB

@M_isfor_mike First of all congratulations 👏 both the 14 and 15 RM’s are lovely wines. There’s no rush, the 15 will be drinking superbly now and the 14 wouldn’t be far behind, but you have 10-15 years up your sleeve when in magnums. Over the next 5 years should be a good window for drinking👍

@BluePoles hey I just found magnums 2024 and 2015 of your reserve merlot stashed away, what’s the drinking window ?!

@wineschools Ahhhh…. no

No Schist Sherlock!🕵️‍♂️🪨🍷 Brand new Wine Blast podcast episode OUT NOW 🎙️🥂 Sample quote: ‘From virtually any soil a high-quality wine can be made. The use of geology to promote the quality of a wine is thus merely a marketing tool.’ 😳🥂 susieandpeter.com/podcast-episod…

@SquidgeRugby He might be the Will Jordan of the northern hemisphere. Will has an amazing record, though I don’t have the time to test it (@TwoCentsRugby ?)

ABC Arts - Blue Poles and Bush Painter. Bloody Right, too!

@JimmyBarnes Got to get you some proper snips my man!

A grape way to start the week

@dontcallmekatie @whiskycast @paultudor I believe he is discussing whisky 🥃 - having >100 bottles of whisky and every one of them cork sealed I’m happy with that closure for that product. For wine, quality screw cap is the best closure. By a distance…

@whiskycast @paultudor Screwcaps are more than just ok. I want to know that the wine I'm buying will age longer (if that's a consideration), and not have an unacceptable level of potential fault. Had this discussion with my brother a couple of days ago. For him, wines taste better under cork. 🤷

Time for a new poll...are you OK with screw cap closures on whiskies, or do you prefer corks?

@ChiefsRugby Josh injured as well? He was awesome off the bench last week

Super Round 23 ⚡️ Set for a couple of debuts off the bench in Melbourne ‼️ Read More here ➡️ bit.ly/3J4y2jr

@bec7ford @bikeymikey70 Actually very improbable 🤨 the transfer of such a small relative energy through semi fluid material is tiny. It is a chance event and not backed by any empirical evidence

@ChiefsRugby @MoanaPasifika_ Sam Cane?

First hit out of 2023 on the way 🔥🔥 Who are you most excited to see take the field tomorrow v MP? Head to @MoanaPasifika_ YouTube for live stream 💻

@aptronym I’d kick off on The Savage Detectives, it provides his signature style of not letting you know his character in what seems an autobiographical spin. He was a cool dude by all accounts….

@BluePoles I'm guessing that for a first Bolano, it wouldn't be your first suggestion?

Just acquired. Today's charity shop finds. $4 and $5. Not read either author before.

@aptronym It became a list of murders in Mexico 🇲🇽 that had no resolution. The victims were ladies and innocent, and the crimes were covered up. It just felt awful and creeping evil. I had a hard time getting through and over it. It is a brilliant book 📕 just harrowing

@BluePoles Oh you've read it. I don't know when I will summon up the willpower to start it. I'm not great with such long books. But it was $5 and I sometimes see ppl tweeting about it so I thought okay well I'll get it in case I want to read it. What type of harrowing? Greetings, btw.

@Rugbytalks1 @RugbyNZ_ Bruce Robertson playing for Counties. Put all the oooooo’s in smooth. Best centre to play the game for me…

Let’s talk Rugby… Who’s the best player you’ve ever seen live?

@bec7ford I feel your pain. A fine balance between disinterest and participation that I’m sure you will walk like an expert funambulist…
