Hey - do you have a link to VC advertising this at all? I used it at checkout but nothing has come through yet with a share so if I have to chase just want to know where the code came from originally? Thanks in advance!

Dark purple-black hue; a density to this and while on paper ageing for 15 months in 25% new French barriques might not seem excessive, the oak dominates. Sweet-sour fruit, drying tannins and not as lively as it should be.

Opened the 2004 Chalambar tonight, did let it breathe for 4 hours in a decanter and it’s drinking like a dream! Lots of sediment in the bottle and needed the time to open up. Wouldn’t leave it any longer.

Yes - got same

Now that was a steal of a deal! Still have 3 left from 6 ordered and probably the best Champagne I've had especially at the price which made it all sweeter

Agree - if we post everything on here on OB straight away then this forum is pointless in my opinion - At least give it a few business days to pass to ensure it is honoured first for those on here before passing to OB. Let’s see if Wynns honours but be good in future if we try and keep the lid...

Thanks! Grabbed the last lot

It was a unique code that once added to enter the ‘secret’ site was only valid for 3 hours - I suspect if you call them though they will be fine to sell it to you if you mention the wine.

Worked for me today as a pre-order. Worth a go at $20 a bottle

NSW or QLD?

I picked up 4 of these too. 94 points JH. At $10 can’t complain! i also picked up Yalumba The Octavius for $59, arras blanc de blanc $40, taittinger Prestige Rose $49, saltram no 1 for $39. All depends on which stores have overstock

Was the wirra wirra RSW? How much was it originally and priced down to?

Huon Hooke Review 2012 Light, bright yellow hue and a discreet, reserved aroma with balanced nutty, creamy lees and beeswax, lemon and grapefruit citrus notes. These citrus flavours are very intense in the mouth, where the wine is balanced and savoury, with a clean, dry finish and lean - almost...

I took a punt and managed to use $20 voucher too. Thanks for heads up!

Has anyone tried this before? Any good? 93 points HH on previous vintages

Agree - I now always use the app for SB and CR and not had any issues

Have you had the sem before? Any good? Not sure how it can retail at $90 per bottle then free in a dozen?!

Such a shame as I was fortunate that the first bottle I opened of it was great but the second was ruined like many others. Just can’t risk the hit and miss on these and DM must know it too and selling cough wine

HH gave 92 points - tasted July 2019. Deep red colour with a decent tint of purple and a dense but slightly closed bouquet that promises to unfold with more time and/or airing. Savoury dried herbs uppermost. The wine is intense and robust in the mouth, with abundant tannin, but the tannin is...

The 18 is far too young at this stage and needs more time. Huon Hooke says it’s from 2021 onwards but needs another 3 years in the cellar in my opinion. I wouldn’t pay $75 for it that’s for sure but for under $30 it’s not a bad drop - just needs time to develop
