Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

Dandelion red queen 2014 for $35. Beware, this vintage is not listed on the dandelion awards page. I seem to remember someone on the forum finding out more about this is the past.

Seen that but decided to leave it based on that information alone. 2014 was a difficult year in the Eden so I suspect there were/are some issues with it and its being offloaded.
 
Have to brag. Had a lucky break and hit some gold (IMO)

Went to my local First Choice and they had the 4 x Kooyong Chard 2016, 4x Devils Corner Resolution Chard 2016 & 1 x Cape Mentelle Chard 2017 on clearance.

The manager came up to me and we started chatting he was keen on getting rid of them all in one go. Ended up walking out of the shop with all 9 bottles for $110. Couldn't believe my luck!

To top it off I managed to beat the wife home and they are now all stored safely away without any prior knowledge.

I am one happy man 😂

4.4 from 39 people via Vivino, it can't be that bad?

I feel better that I personally didn't miss out, don't drink many whites. 🤣
100%< always clearances in-store tho but it's alot of effort.

Do FC have a section for clearance? I know some BWS stores have, but not all.

First Choice only has 30% CB on limited items, 12% on everything else via CR.

No they have there clearance stuff spread out through shop, doesn't go online often as I believe it is quite store specific.
 
I bought a couple of dozen of the 2014 Red Queens last year for $30 a bottle from DM's. I've just bought another dozen at $35 a bottle just then. I certainly wouldn't pay $250 a bottle for it, but at $35, that's another story.....

It retails for $90-95 literally everywhere I've seen, other than direct which lists $250.

Someone may of gotten a little excited with the discount 🤣 I think people would be extremely disappointed if they drunk this and thought it was $250, let alone $90.
It's probably worth $35, like I've said if certain wines keep going on clearance, there's something not right.

BWS is different as they just clear out vintages, and even then their 50% is really 30% discount compare to Dan Murphys.

You've bought so many, so I'm going to assume you tried one and absolutely love it to buy dozens & dozens? In that case you could probably enlighten us?

Yeah mate. Definitely worthwhile at $35 a bottle. I don't mind quaffing it at that price. You don't even really need to decant it either....
 
there are some at Ascot Vale Vic if searching for pick up
You think by now these retailers would just show which stores in the state have a product availability.
I checked 10-15 stores in SA, nothing locally.

I recall sending my brother and a mate a list of clearances from Dan Murphys and they said nothing was good. :/

That's an expensive quaffer 😬

I'm surprised there isn't more feedback on here, considering you mentioned last year it being $30 on clearance.
