Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[blackcat20]

I figure we have the Epiqure thread, and the VM thread, but this might be a good place to list other wine deals so that they aren't so easily missed.

DM's have some secret deals right now: https://www.danmurphys.com.au/list/...epage&medium=slot2&campaign=carousel-tracking

As per other threads, the Champers is Taittinger and the Shiraz is Wolf Blass Brown Label.

Saw the secret shiraz deal in the other thread and thought it's a good deal so I've ordered one case.
I have no room left in the fridge and only a few days until the delivery arrives so better get down to work

This is confusing if this is Essenze Pinot Noir.
Listed at DM for $60/bottle but can be had for well under $20 elsewhere.

Are you talking about the Flagship?

This wine is pretty scarce online and I haven't been able to find it at anywhere close to $20.
Can you post a link, thanks ?

I also bought a doz of the Grown Label - $26.00 less 13% = $22.62 IMCAC - seriously good value at that price.

I don't know about any "flagship" Essenze but at amatos.com.au/Shop/Search/essenze/Essenze+Pinot+Noir+Central+Otago
it's only $12.99. Bottle photos looks the same.

Note: New here so cannot post link.

I'd say that they are different wines

Re: Vinomofo Wine Deals

The Dan Murphy secret selection Pinot Noir is the EsseNZe Flagship Central Otago Pinot Noir. Does anybody have any experience of this? I am seriously considering it plus the wolf blass.

I agree. No vintage listed, different label.

Welcome to AFF jasonking. You should pop over to Introductions and say hello.

Great thread.
Is the Wolf Blass Brown Label definitely screw cap?
It says so here, but I am aware of certain practices where some of the allocation for a different market is cork.. and one reason why it is cheap as a secret offer, is that they are getting rid of the cork stock.

Should be but can let you know when it arrives...

The website specifically states:

'Closure Screw Cap'

I'm not concerned either way and in fact would actually prefer cork.

What is IMCAC?
Shipping cost is $7 for me as no pickup available local DM.
Wait for better offer.

Good idea

If My Calculations Are Correct - make sure you alert us all if you see a better offer than this won't you please?

Had a call from DM today regarding the Secret Shiraz. They said there has been a huge response and deliveries were delayed by up to a week, as more stock had to be sourced from Victoria. They wouldn't confirm it was the Wolf Blass - but there is no doubt in my mind.

Just back from Costco Lidcombe. Very very quiet.
Saw a guy loading trolley with all displayed stocks of Tatachilla Foundation Shiraz for $29.99.
Didn't get to see vintage. DM have 2009 vintage for $46.55
