    Good Barolo is good but expensive. It's expensive enough in Italy and here the tax is an added killer. Cheap Barolo is generally cheap for a reason.

    $80 less 10% cashback = $72. The Sidewide 10% has expired.

    I meant that they protect Penfolds (particularly the higher RRP lines)

    I think I see if there's an increased CB over the weekend but I'll take 2 @ $80 either way and if there's a further drop down the track I'll stock up. TWE are pretty good at restricting discounting and protecting RRP,

    I realise there are a lot of anti Penfolds/TWE cynics out there (myself included) but I think I grab a couple of bottled of 2019 Bin 389 for $80 from Vintage Cellars for the cellar: 3 day offer. 2 bottles will get you free delivery. CR/SB only 2.5% but brings it down to $78.

    I'm not sure it's corked if it recovered. Personally I have no issues with cork. I reckon I've had thousands of cork bottled wines up to 20+ years old and could count on one hand the wines actually affected by cork taint. Plenty of oxidised, UV, heat and Brett affected wines and plenty just...

    Not sure retailers need to offer any deals given volumes have been strong for a long time. This EOFY might not be a bonanza at all.

    Good, well made very over priced RRP products. I like them both and have them both but don't buy them any more. Particularly post TWE Grange.

    Share pricing often precedes results. I'm not sure about their P&L results but there have been a lot of Penfolds package initiatives in the last 6 months that I've never seen before. I've also been getting constand sake emails for TWE's other labels - again nothing worth getting excited about

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    Nice match of over priced boots with over priced wine. Both good quality Aussie icons but 50% discount is required just to bring them to reality rather than bargain territiory. TWE obviously feeling the China tax pain and trying hard not to erode the RRP of their Penfolds flagship. I get calls...

    I don't know this wine but the second label Bordeaux's generally aren't great from my experience. There are some lovely Bordeaux wines but I think with bordeaux you get what you pay for and you always pay too much.

    I don't buy MR Shiraz at all so CS wouldn't be my cuppa tea. There is too much better shiraz (for my tastes) elsewhere. MR Cabinet on the other hand... Horses for courses.

    Obviously taste's vary but there seem quite disparate views on here from those that have tried it. I got fruit but not to the extend of prune or anything jammy. I got a drying tannan element on the back pallet which I expected. It seemed to me to be a Signature but not 100% up to normal...

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    I tried one of the "Signatures" and thought it was good, particularly for the price. Not as big as I expected but it had good fruit. I expected it to be a touch early fro my liking and it was. The tannins will give it a bit of staying power. I think it is the genuine article but they have...

    I was told by someone at GWD that they believe it to be The Signature. This is a very good wine although I haven't had the 2016. Put it down for a while - I'll be starting to drink these in 5 years.

    Extract from response from Shopback when I emailed re First Choice credit for $25 when cap was stated to be $30.

    Sparkling (Shiraz or Red) Recommendations?

    Try the Rutherglen region. Anderson are one of my gotos.

    For $20 it's OK. For $40 it's mediocre. Sorry don't have TN's. Had it some time back when on special. Nothing wrong with it but didn't think it worth buying more.

    At CD pricing Rockfords BP and Rifle Range are bloody good wines IMO.
