I had a bottle of aussi wine a while back someone got it for me because it was Tyrrell wine. Thats my last name. Have you ever heard of it? Maybe the folks who make it descended from the Tyrrell who shot the king in a archery hunting accident in england?

Maybe he had drunk too much wine before hand?

The website 416SW posted tells you all.

The average Aussie calls it plonk; the women put it in pudding and occasionally you drink the stuff if you want to show etiquite in mixed company.
The women don't mind you getting pissed on plonk but object to you coming home with beer on your breath.
Funny creatures these women

The average Aussie calls it leg opener.

Thanks for the link! i was reading about Sir Walter in an archery book the other day. Thought maybe he fled the country and his relatives started making wine in Australia. Looks like the same family. Too bad they dont make BEER not much of a wine drinker myself. Thanks again.

Lots of Aussies dont spell very well so they label their beer with XXXX so that even the dyslexic can get pissed.....
