when we stayed in Ubud last Christmas we found lots of wine (including WA) at the new supermarket up the hill. They were good brands and vintages for around $20 which was very competitive with Aussie prices. When the food is so cheap and so great, if the wine is normal price I think that is ok! Some of the other supermarkets we have seen have a wide range of wines but seem to concentrate on sticking the sweeter whites so this was a great find for us. With regards to drinking a lot (of wine or just a lot!), in Bali we don't drive so it is a really relaxing time and we can fully appreciate the qualities each wine (or beer or whisky or g&t or...) without having to worry once about who is driving (it's NOT my turn) or if we can get a taxi at this time!!
