title says it all really… my SFO based cousin is coming over to Sydney next month and is willing to bring over 3 bottles (our duty limit before taxes are imposed on all the wines). Given the crazy prices and limited availability of many USA and European wines here in Australia, I’m hoping to pickup 3 mid/higher end bottles via a good online retailer who can ship to her address in San Fran and will accept my Australian credit card.
Suggestions for retailer and/or wines would be most welcome, and apologies if this has been covered elsewhere!!
Thinking along the lines of a Monte Bello, maybe with a touch of age, possibly a good white/red Burg and/or aged Chinon.
Cheers and TIA.

P.S That thread on ‘single greatest American wine’ has me drooling, but I assume most of those would be unobtainium without deep pockets or good friends.
Go with K&L. She can pick them up in person for you if you want to avoid the risk of them being damaged in transit. I think they also handle deliver locally.
As others upthread mention, I also think they are the best retailer in the US.
I would also recommend K&L if you are specifically looking for back vintages. I have been buying from them for the last 25 years and their selection and service is excellent.
