10% discount for 6 and under $5 shipping in Melbourne makes this one a no brainer for me.

Not sure if you can get away with unlabelled, however this is the unlabelled 2023 Hoddles Creek Estate PN (same bottle, branded screw cap and branded case).

I just notice Glengyle is recommend to drink to 2031, messenger is a bit longer to 2035, both of them are not design for long term cellar. To $40, it is a bargain.

Yeah the drinking windows are interestingly low IMO. Calliard gives it to 2034.
However, according to CD.co, Wynns BL ('21, '22) are only to 2031 too... knowing that BL has tremendous aging ability under cork, let alone screw cap.

Absolutely, ordered 6 to go with the gamay

Got mine today. Not quite sure what to make of it, box is labelled as Mr Hugh 2019 but the cap has a frog on it.




I looked up Mr Hugh and it has $270 RRP for six bottles but couldn’t see any association with Hoddles Creek. So maybe it was just a box they used for shipping.

Hoddles Creek Estate PN ships in cases of 12, so if you ordered a half dozen, they probably would have just used a smaller box that they hand on hand for shipping.

For your interest, mine (a dozen) were delivered as so.

I just bought a dozen of the hoddles creek PN (same vintage) at $20 a bottle and thought that was a great price! $145 shipped for a dozen is a filthy bargain, so looks like I'll have two doz of that vintage now! Thanks for sharing
