Any idea's on what this mystery pack is made up of? https://www.danmurphys.com.au/produ...9/mystery-mixed-red-pack-8-with-bonus-meshach
Have been keen to try the Meshach so could be a good opportunity to get this along with some other hopefully good quality reds.

Not enough info for me to make an informed guess.

Several people have reported that they've purchased it. Hopefully they will report back here when delivered.

I bought and will report back when it arrives - the email I received said this also included a bottle of Lindeman's Limestone Ridge Shiraz Cabernet 2013

Thanks poochio, will be interested to find out what the other bottles are. I have been generally happy with the SS from Dan's but they are getting more vague in their descriptions so harder to work out up front what you are getting.

This SS is coming from WineMarket, so that might give you a hint as to what's in it, given they have a far more limited range. The 96 point iconic Coonawarra red blend will be the Limestone Ridge that you mention.

Winedirect have Curtis Cavaliere for $120/6 pack for Amex, but the link provided looks like it's open to all.

That's massive discount! Looks like good deal for $20.
Previous vintage was part of their secret deal last year.

The percentage off may look good, but this range is often heavily discounted.

My records show the 2012 was also knocked out at $20 a bottle in October 2014.

I've not purchased or tasted the wine, but I'm always suspicious when such a high RRP wine doesn't sell and then is dumped at a steep discount. It may look like a bargain simply because of the level of discounting but in reality $20 seems the price that the market is normally prepared to pay.

Yes I agree that's why didn't order yet until I'll read some more reviews. Wondering if it's one of those labels which are exported at an inflated price and later offered at their true value here.

With the 30% off offer at winedirect you can pickup the dandelion lionheart of the barossa shiraz 2014 for $15 a bottle. in a case of 12.
Good deal. Really like that wine

Wow that will be nice. So are there 7 or 8 bottles in this "Mystery Mixed Red Pack 8 with Bonus Meshach"?

 

[AnonymousCoward]

7 bottles. It just Pack #8. If you search the DM site you can also see Pack #7 and Pack #9

 

[Brissy1]

Ah thanks. I just checked #7 sold out and #9 ..... I'll pay the extra for the Meshach in #8 if/when we get a report that the other 5 bottles are up to standard of, say, the included Limestone Ridge..

I would imagine the limestone is the best of the bunch seeing as that's the one they chose to reveal..

Agree with Ste667 - unlikely to get Meshach + Limestone Ridge + 5 equivalent bottles at less than <$30/bot. If the quality were that high they'd charge more money ala Langton's mystery boxes.

If only some decent codes were available it might be worth a punt.

For me and you Vedder, this is a tad difficult but for AC, a sinch...if only.
