Seems funny that someone from Hawaii should be helping you, but what the heck. My wife is Irish-American, and very much so (went to high school in County Clare). In any case, Tollana is part of the Southcorp Wine Group, which also owns the famous Penfolds brand (which also makes wonderful Chardonnay, but a little more generous in flavor than the Tollana, since the latter sources its fruit in the Eden Valley which makes more delicate, refined styles). Therefore, I would surmise that any retail store that carries the Penfolds line should also be able to order some Tollana for you as well, since it would come from through the same distribution channels. Just ask. All they can say is, "Sorry, mate!)
