I made use of the Vivino deal to order some Andre Clouet through Emperor Champagne, I'll be testing out the brut, rose and brut nature. The 20∆% off and 5.6% cashback should take it down to $57.64 a bottle, free postage for orders over $250 I think it was. Worth noting the code VIVINO20 is better to use if it works for you, VIVINOAU20 might have a max discount limit as I got a higher amount off using VIVINO20.
interesting - VIVINOAU20 is meant to be max $200 discount, VIVINO20 $100
 
Seems to be a few deals going around this week, not sure why they've decided to discount now. Dom Perignon is $250 at Liquorland then $10 off for $100+ spend, 2000 flybuys on a $50+ spend and another 3% at cashrewards. Various other bottles on discount through Liquorland/first choice, Dan's have Louis Roederer Cristal back in stock with various other champagnes I haven't seen there in a while.

Also boozebud have been persistent with a $20 off $75 spend unique code they keep sending me, took up their offer yesterday on Charles heidsieck brut reserve with another 30% from shopback taking it to $58.72 delivered for the bottle.

I thought there was meant to be a champagne shortage impending doom...?

LL has 15% CB today?

Unique codes + CB will fail CB, if the code isn't listed the CB won't be approved.
 
thanks/credit to @billbro:
  • Bollinger La Grande Année 2012 $159.92 delivered @ Vinomofo after $30 off using CRIKEY (all customers) and 20% ShopBack - ends midnight AEDT today

however with also AmEx's $60 back from $299 spend Vinomofo offer and ShopBack's $10 bonus cashback after $240 spend Vinomofo challenge (Earn More in ShopBack app), using CRIKEY or VINO (new customers), 2 bottles end up being $136.92 each :)

Mike Bennie has given 95pts to Larmandier-Bernier Longitude LAT150319 (2015 base, MAR19 disgorgement - presumably he meant LON150319, since his 94pt Latitude was LAT160319)
ending today ACDT as well is this exact same wine at $105 delivered @ Sometimes Always using BIG25 for $25 off

I wouldn't risk using CRIKEY with the VM CB unless you want to be disappointed, it's not listed.
 
My bottle of Charles Heidsieck NV arrived today, quite excited to try this soon. Actually it arrived yesterday with authority to leave but ended up at the post office anyway :/ ...with that said the bright yellow boozebud packaging doesn't exactly leave its contents a mystery, I haven't had a delivery stolen before but they could use some slightly more subtle packaging.

Anywhose, good deal on Piper Heidsieck NV and Moet NV today at Liquorland. Two for $100/$120 respectively, $10 off $100 orders and 25% cashback at shopback.

I've had a browser tab open for a while at mycellars on a 2008 Veuve La Grande Dame for $240 + $10 or so delivery, saw the stock get down to one bottle and now it's sold out. Decided I couldn't justify another high priced buy after the Louis Roederer Cristal for baby #2 but a shame to see it go, I don't see any remaining stock around of this vintage for under $300 delivered.

On a side note are all of the 2012's Yayoi Kusama or is this a temporary higher priced launch edition?

Yup, just a marketing gimmick on the packaging.

Maison One still has them for $225, but there is a min purchase of 3 now...
