The best wine mentioned in this thread IMO is Mad Mel's suggestion of D'Arenberg Footbolt shiraz -- great wine! However I think you'd really be hard pressed to find it in Canada.
Good thing Canada imports Yellowtail, because nobody drinks it here.

Apparently you can get D'Arenberg The Footbolt in Calgary at Centre Street North. $25 for the 2008. As I mentioned earlier, it's great value if you like the full-on taste of an Australian shiraz. sa226, if you like The Stump Jump, there's a good chance that you'll love The Footbolt.
