- Drink shedloads of wine
- Talk about it circumferentially
- Make a record of these discussions

The Phalanx membership is capped at twelve. Members are by nature varied in bias and persuasion, loosely representing the gamut of communicable philosophies. As old members expire, potential aspirants are vigorously investigated before acceptance to the Phalanx.

Wines are consumed once a month in a lightly choreographed ritual of moist, lucid, errant banter. All wines are purchased with a budget of $20 a head and presented un-disclosed by the host to win critical acclaim or savage shame upon their choice. The host may choose one $240 bottle or 240 $1 bottles - the choice is theirs; typically 6 or 7 bottles are served.

Comments and ratings are recorded and presented on this application for the benefit of cyber wine buffs who like to compare notes.

The wines listed include all wines consumed to this month, with an average rating out of 10 (Phalanx registered rating system), and the price at the time of purchase in Australian dollars. The rating system is simple - 10 is fantastic, 1 is very, very bad.
