Random codes 12880, try different numbers aka 12875 etc

I generally wouldn't post get wine direct deals, however I did some digging.

If you check this wine on Vivino, you find quite a few references to Chris Ringland.

It looks like the winemaker behind this wine could be Chris himself.
I wouldn't worry about the $300rrp, but for $25 a bottle it could be a good buy.

Very mixed reviews, over 50+ on GWD website.

No longer Chris R from about 8 years+ ago when the parent company went bust.

Not sure who has taken over but the style has also changed from the older vintages.

Nothing to do with Chris Ringland. He ceased with R.WINES after 2008 vintage.

JD Cellars latest secret wine appears to be 2016 Pettavel Platina Yarra Valley Chardonnay (see top left).

One wonders where the RPP of $90 comes from when the RRP is $39 in Halliday's notes, appreciate cellaring costs are a thing, but...

RESERVE PLATINA CHARDONNAY – PETTAVEL WINES Also fits the description and has cellar door price of 90 bucks. Could be the same thing with differing RRP's but reckon this is it.

I was just on cellarone looking at what I could use a $30 voucher on and ended up stumbling upon a deal on 2018 brookland valley reserve chardie. It's available for $20 direct from supplier via vivino rather than latest vintage @$54 on cellarone

Just received a call from vivino. 2018 out of stock but supplier willing to swap for 2020 at same price. (Call comea through as ADL landline)

So I received an email from JDCellars offering Secret Wine #366

Dear Friends,

Here's a Halliday rated 96 Point Single Vineyard Chardonnay that's been sleeping like Cinderella untouched in the winery cellars for the past 6 years.

Handpicked and whole bunch pressed, this HALF PRICE vinous treat simply won't last...Secret Wine # 366

"From the best block on the 'x' Vineyard, hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, cold-settled, fermented in French oak (30% new), matured for 9 months. Bight straw-green; a very interesting chardonnay, planned from the ground up to provide an extra layer of varietal fruit flavour on the vine. It has hallmark Yarra Valley white peach and grapefruit flesh and zest, gaining power as the wine travels along the palate before grilled cashew and cream appear on the very last burst of flavour on the finish and aftertaste." 96 Points and Special Value James Halliday

Now, you know the rules of my Secret Wine Series, so play nice.
In order to protect the winery and the years of hard work they've spent building their brand, the identity of this wine won't be revealed until it arrives, delivered to your doorstep, fully labeled and ready to impress...at HALF PRICE!

Here we go...

* 2016 Single Vineyard Yarra Chardonnay
* Handpicked & whole bunch pressed
* 96 Points and Special Value James Halliday
* French Oak for 9 months
* Screw cap/Fully labelled
* 13% alcohol
* Never before offered at JDC

Impeccable provenance.

First in, first served.

Secret Wine # 366 @ $44.99
Cellar Door $90

Basic search reveals that this is Pettavel Reserve Platina Chardonnay 2016

Thinking that $90 price tag is a bit ridiculous - I did more searching.

When you search for JH Review - it states that the price when tasted was $39 which is more realistic. Another search confirmed $39 price tag.

Caveat Emptor

$99 at Winestar

This price make sense.

Previous vintage 2015 was sold last year for $100 at Dans and $110 at BWS. Now the 2016 is $150 at Dans and $160 at BWS (in store). Pure greed.

Many moons ago, when I was in retail liquor, we used a 35-38% margin to arrive at rrp. Someone out there may be able to confirm or correct me, as I suspect this margin is now 100% (probably even more) to enable discount cycles (at a smaller margin) now largely aimed at the e market sector and for those who don't do their homework, buy at the premium price (businesses can't go wrong)

Yep, this is the trend these days. Jack up the price then put on sale at 50% off and you’ve got yourself a “bargain”.

Cyril went from $140-$160 in a year at First Choice.

It's interesting because exports are down, there's so many good deals but I believe high end wines are selling well in international markets

 

[Cruiser Elite]

IMIIC wine margins at retail ~30% give or take - Majella offered me their wsale prices exactly same as Dans / Langtons / BWS etc pay - GPL68 at $97 incl - Langtons currently offering this at $130 so ~30% would seem about right.

But we still operate in a market economy don’t we? All vendors are free to set their prices wherever they desire - if a mug punter pays shelf price then that’s life - don’t some of you guys ever sit and watch a Dans or BWS or FC store and see the continual never ending stream of punters who come and go with trolleys full of plonk almost 100% at shelf price?
