Is the Parkers First Growth 2009 worth the risk? Any views on its drinking window?

Really wanted to try that Haut Bailly but it wouldn't go through checkout.

 

[butters_1313]

I almost grabbed the Haut-Bailly II, but I'm not sure whether it is a half bottle, given the mentioned RRP? Still probably an ok buy (equivalent to $70 a bottle).

Here is the listing for the half bottle:

The Langtons shipping ($18.50) almost kills the deals for me...

 

[hwy]

thanks- it is my first time to make a carpe diem on time and have got a nice mixed dozen. Some great prices. But yea- $18.50 for shipping which comes up as free at checkout, but then you get hit aafterwards.

Also my first carpe diem, picked up some Turkey flat , parker, MR Chardonnays and some French for a punt. Also don't like the shipping.

A sneaky Wed carpe sale by Langtons.

Public holiday tomorrow. Lest we forget.

My nearest Dans has Redman Cabernet 2021 for $20.24 in a 6 (after gift cards). But it only seems like select stores have this price (and it is not advertised as a special).

https://www.danmurphys.com.au/product/DM_10987/redman-cabernet-sauvignon

Similarly, another nearby Dans has Coldstream Hills pinot for $18.34 in a 6 (after gift cards). Again, it only seems like select stores have this price, and it is not advertised as a special.

[butters_1313]

While grabbing some Redman from Dans, I also grabbed a bottle of Majella Cabernet 2020 (which is currently $28.50 after gift cards). I highly recommend it - it has a lovely aroma, is medium bodied with lots of juicy berries, great length. Tbh I opened it way too early - it will last many years, and will probably be at its best around 2030. But it compared very favourably to a bottle of Frankland Estate Cab 2021 which I had earlier in the week, which I found disappointing - thin, watery and without structure.

I love that stuff, and it's good value imho at about $25-28. Others on this forum less keen on it. It's possible it's not quite the really excellent drop it was 10 years ago but I have it semiregularly and it always impresses.

 

[accompanimince]

Dan Murphys Coburg has Hardys HRB Chard for $16. Not sure if it's the same price at other stores

 

[Ag7]

BWS Ashburton (VIC) has a few Clonakilla Shiraz Viognier for $72 (inc 10% 6 or more disc)

 

[Dr Ralph]

I bought some of these from Grays earlier this year:


Cimicky Blackmoor Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 (Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 Auction (0063-10728537) | Grays Australia)


Tried one last night. Enjoyable. Went back for some more today. Going for between $18 and $25 a bottle with all of the associated fees.

bonics.com.au

I have never heard of this before, but is it really $900 a bottle? Whereas their next Shiraz is about $50.
Is this another China wine or only marketed overseas?
Also I google it, no shops sells this but Langton's and Wickman has sold this in auction.
Surely you guys would have come across this wine?

Made for China. Cellar tracker only gives 88 points which tells me enough.

I’ve had this wine in 2021, same vintage. A friend had been gifted it and at the time the winery was selling it for $500. In fairness it had fantastic fruit and was a well structured wine but was it worth $500? Certainly not. $80-$100 maybe more like it.

Yes, I heard it's a well-made wine. I supposed I was wondering where the premium pricing is from. (Purposely inflated or super rare or cult wine) As I have never heard of this brand. interestingly, those who had this wine has all been gifted.
