MELBOURNE Jason Witten Jersey , July 21 (Xinhua) -- A 66-year-old bottle of Australian wine has sold for more than 41,000 U.S. dollars in Melbourne, it was confirmed on Friday.


The bottle of 1951 Penfolds Grange Hermitage was auctioned off by MW Wines on Wednesday night with an unnamed collector taking the piece of history home for 41,110 U.S. dollars.


The vintage, Penfold's first, was produced by Max Schubert, the prestigious company's chief winemaker at the time Dak Prescott Jersey , and was never made publicly available.


It is believed that around 1,800 bottles of the wine were produced, 20 of which still exist today. It is the first sale of the 1951 wine since another bottle was sold for 39,870 U.S. dollars in 2004.


Nick Stamford, managing director of MW Wines, said it was a ""staggering"" price for ""a piece of history.""


He said that the wine had been tasted by Schubert in 1993 and Penfolds' current chief winemaker in 2012 who confirmed it was still in excellent condition.


""The 1951 is now quite notorious for many of them being not in great shape for drinking. Some are fantastic, but very variable. There is the old saying -- there is no great old wines Ezekiel Elliott Jersey , there is just great old bottles,"" Stamford told Australian media on Friday.


""Some bottles still have fruit sweetness and flavor length. Largely the wine has a dull tawny color and skeletal palate structure with little flesh and fading tannins,"" he said.


""I would imagine this one's going to be part of history rather than being drunk. It's an investment,"" he added.


Penfolds is Australia's best-known winemaker with vintages regularly being sold for thousands of dollars despite some experts disputing that it's Australia's best wine.


""While it's an iconic style of wine, it's a style a lot of people, including myself, don't particularly enjoy Cowboys Kids Jersey ,"" Ian McKenzie, director of The Wine Society, said.


""There are and have been better wines than Grange but (Grange) has the cachet with the consumers and the collectors and that's why the price holds up.""

BATTAMBANG, Cambodia, Sept. 16 (Xinhua) -- Norry Cowboys Youth Jersey , a home-made bamboo train which has delighted tourists for nearly two decades, is on the brink of disappearance as Cambodia has started to restore the rail line for a train service.


UNIQUE EXPERIENCE


"It felt more like a roller coaster, but it's really nice, and I think it is a good way to transport really heavy things from one to another place, so yes, it's nice," German tourist Theresa Kessemeier said after she completed a ride.


In Battambang Cowboys Womens Jersey , about 291 km northwest of capital Phnom Penh, Norry was first invented in the 1980s by railway workers who used it to check and repair train tracks; later local people had used it to transport goods and to travel along the tracks.


Until 1999, local people have used bamboo trains to carry tourists to see bucolic scenery along the dilapidated railroad in Sangke district of northwestern Cambodia's Battambang province and the bamboo trains have gradually become a popular mode of transport for foreign tourists since then.


Canadian tourist Lisanne Lacroix said, "I really, really enjoyed it. You get to see the (rice) fields; you get to see just everyday's lives, so it's a very great experience."


Norry provides a thrilling 7-km ride to tourists for 5 U.S. dollars per tourist, or 10 U.S. dollars for renting a norry for a single trip Black Cowboys Jersey , and a norry is capable of carrying six passengers. It can be assembled or demolished in only a few minutes.


Two axles stripped from old vehicles were laid on the train tracks, and a bamboo platform was set on top of them. A small petrol engine was wedged into a hole that is cut out of the platform and tied to one of the axles with a rubber strap.


Another German tourist Arian Rathmann said before seeing the bamboo train, he imagined that it was like a real train, but it was different from his thought when he saw it.


"It's different from what I thought of because when you hear about the train, you think it's like a big train with big wagon ... I didn't think it is just like a small platform, and you go like on a roller coaster, very interesting Cowboys Jersey Sale , I like it," he said.


BRINK OF DISAPPEARANCE


Currently, some 40 bamboo trains are serving tourists along the 7-km stretch of the dilapidated 388-km rail line which lies from Phnom Penh to Banteay Meanchey province and Thai border.


The railway overhaul had begun from the Thai border for years and reached the place where the bamboo trains operate earlier this month, Chan Samleng, director of the Railroad Department.


He added that the norry operators were told to stop plying the rail track, but they defied the ban.


"According to the law, they have no rights to operate norries on the railways Cheap Cowboys Jersey ," he told Xinhua.


Chan Samleng said the restoration of the rail line from Phnom Penh to Thai border is expected to be fully completed by the end of 2018.


Bamboo train operator Ngul Nguon acknowledged that the bamboo train drivers were told to stop operation on the railroad, but they defied the ban because they did not have other jobs to do.


"I'm really concerned when this railroad is closed because I'm a bit old and don't know what to do," said the 56-year-old father of three children.


Nguon said that he could earn between 5 and 15 U.S. dollars a day.


Another driver Sokun Koeun, 36, said operating norry is the only skil.
