WINNER 2007 DEBORTOLI PUB OF THE YEAR:
Bouzy Rouge: After 18 years of this segment, after five pubs, Jose D'Olivera wins his first award. Took over a good little pub (Dover Castle) and elevated it to one of Melbourne’s best. Great restaurant but overwhelmingly the pub elements shine through. A worthy winner.
That’s it for 2007. Thank you for your emails, suggestions for pubs and criticisms of my reviews. I look forward to presenting the segment for a 13th year in 2008.
