    If you post the link to the offer (Open in browser option top right and copy url), then I or someone else not on the JD list will probably work it out for you.

    I haven't received the MC TN yet. But I did try a sample last night via Coravin and wasn't overly impressed. It's a big style Pinot (don't mind that), but lacks classic Pinot aromas and flavours, non-descript light dry red almost, and it has a strange tingle on the tongue, not spritz, but...

    This arrived today labelled as Joss Bay Barrel Selection Pinot Noir 2020, not The Canyon. I've contacted VM for information and to ask for the Michael Cooper TN. Update: VM claim this is the Tarras The Canyon re-labelled for the Aus Market, ie for them. They are trying to get the Michael Cooper...

    Yes. But some of the good ones, like Mayford Porepunkah actually take 10 years or so to hit their peak.

    I sent the Jack Harrison 2021 back with this message: I'm sad to say this didn't live up to my expectations. I like Eden Valley Shiraz and have a fair bit in my cellar, but this doesn't seem to fit the pattern. It has a jammy character and a little sweet/sour taste that is not enticing. No one...

    Opened the bottle tonight, posted over on my place: Dalwhinnie The Eagle Shiraz 2015 - this was $69 from TWC Mystery Deal 05, now up to $80. Pretty good colour for nearly 10 years old, savoury nose, mellow oak and dark, earthy charcuterie notes, dark fruit subsumed into firm savoury tannins...

    :) Ok, I've long preferred Margaret River/Gt Southern and even some Victorian and (in good years) Barossa or McLaren Vale Cabernets to most of those from Coonawarra, which I often find too herbaceous/green and overly acidic. I don't much care for the modern-styled earlier drinking Cabernets from...

    I have one on the way, but don't have high expectations. There are two reviews from Huon Hooke at 88 (2020) and 91 (2022). I bought some of the standard Dalwhinnie Shiraz 2015 from Langton's a few years back at just under $50, wasn't overly impressed. Of interest, the standard Dalwhinnie Shiraz...

    Sorry, haven't tried it or any other of the Reschke reds from the last 20 years. I stopped buying Coonawarra Cabernets many years ago.

    Yeah, saw that review, JPB is a big, oaky style, right down my alley. Been waiting for the 2021 after trying the 2020 earlier this year. BSV and Amico are new lines I've never seen before and surprise, surprise they pop up on Vinomofo.

    Yeah, I'm working up to a Patritti 2021 Shiraz tasting, I have Merchant (from Skye), BSV and Amico from VM, Lot 3 and JPB from cellars.com.au. I've only tried the Merchant and it's decent value at the $11 or so I paid.

    Yeah, tasted one from a friend's buy at Winestar (mystery deal). Fair wine at the discounted price, plenty of flavour but a little simple overall I didn't go for any more, I have heaps of better 2018 Shiraz already. 1726563011 Is $165 at Nicks Benriach 21 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky...
