I am a very serious red wine drinker here in Oz. I hardly ever drink beer here, but things are very different in Bali. Reds do not taste the same with Indonesian food and spices, and vice versa. The local Bali reds simply do not come close to an almost decent full-bodied Oz Red. However, there are a number of excellent outlets for imported wines, some are even reasonably priced, if you simply can't survive the holiday without a hit. Beware tho, most are not stored at anything like optimum temperatures and are in full sunlight.
