Having trouble visualizing how one forklift could smash 462 cases of wine, unless it was done deliberately or... What, did the forklift's inner muslim come alive?

Mollydooker Velvet Glove shiraz

Oh come on. They made that name up by just randomly choosing words, at least one of which isn't even a real word, and they should just come right out and admit it!

;-)

True - one hell of an "accident". My thought was some union worker that was pissed for having to work for his pay. Tie that with your Muslim thoughts and we have the worst workers in the world: disgruntled Muslim union workers wage-takers

What did they do, drop it off a 4-story building?

Some of the forklifts used to load cargo ships are positively immense, as are the shipping containers. I think it quite possible that 500 cases of wine would fit in a single shipping container. It would probably only weigh about 15,000 lbs (assuming 12, 750 ml bottles to the case).

Mollydooker

WTF is a Mollydooker? Is it a riverbed that is only filled during hurricane season? One of those Australian spiders that can kill you at twenty feet just by looking at you? An aboriginal weapon combining a boomerang and a stick of dynamite?

OK, I just looked it up. Mollydooker is Aussie for a left-hander. Why can't they just speak English and call them southpaws. :-)

Maybe the forklift operator had been sampling the merchandise.

Maybe they should put the wine in aluminum cans. ;-)

"Having trouble visualizing how one forklift could smash 462 cases of wine, "

Girl from Accounting wearing tight pants, drops a pencil, bends to pick it up. Forklift operator watches her... 462 cases of Shiraz kaput.

That's what we call "human error!"

A lot of people in this country pooh-pooh Australian table wines. This is a pity as many fine Australian wines appeal not only to the Australian palate but also to the cognoscenti of Great Britain.

Black Stump Bordeaux is rightly praised as a peppermint flavoured Burgundy, whilst a good Sydney Syrup can rank with any of the world’s best sugary wines.

Château Blue, too, has won many prizes; not least for its taste, and its lingering afterburn.

Old Smokey 1968 has been compared favourably to a Welsh claret, whilst the Australian Wino Society thoroughly recommends a 1970 Coq du Rod Laver, which, believe me, has a kick on it like a mule: eight bottles of this and you’re really finished. At the opening of the Sydney Bridge Club, they were fishing them out of the main sewers every half an hour.

Of the sparkling wines, the most famous is Perth Pink. This is a bottle with a message in, and the message is ‘beware’. This is not a wine for drinking, this is a wine for laying down and avoiding.

Another good fighting wine is Melbourne Old-and-Yellow, which is particularly heavy and should be used only for hand-to-hand combat.

Quite the reverse is true of Château Chunder, which is an appellation contrôlée, specially grown for those keen on regurgitation; a fine wine which really opens up the sluices at both ends.

Real emetic fans will also go for a Hobart Muddy, and a prize winning Cuivre Reserve Château Bottled Nuit San Wogga Wogga, which has a bouquet like an aborigine’s armpit.
