Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

Thanks interesting reading qaz.

I have just bought the 2nd last 2014 Willow Bridge Gravel Pit shiraz on graysonline ebay for a six pack for about #20 per bottle free delivery!
Around 3 weeks ago I bought it an end of year of special at an oulet for $25 but after 1st July back to $30. At that price it was well worth it as it is a big beautiful shiraz that just improved over many days (I'm no match for beefarmer).

I came upon this deal looking for pavers for renovation!
If you want to buy any of the Willow Bridge wines the deal is there by adding CTEC20 as the code .
If you are having trouble finding it on ebay search for Willow Bridge.

94 points from CM...not sure if worth the $70 though

It is, apologies for the double up

I can only speak for their Simpatico and Symphony shirazes which are excellent

They possibly won't live as long as Wendouree's but are perhaps more approachable/drinkable sooner

Like most good shiraz, I tend not to drink them until they've aged at least 8/10+ years, but the Simpatico could be ready sooner, say 5yrs (I generally open Wendouree at 15yrs minimum)

They could probably be cellared for at least 15-20yrs (Wendouree 30+)

Thanks Qaz - have heard good things - will give the Simpatico a shot this year and see what its like - big talk around the place on the quality of the 2014 Mclaren Vales being released at the moment!

Interesting comment from someone who has bought it.. well known producer that has been exporting this wine and it hasnt been available in Oz for a few years

I saw an add on Freeview tv last night for a mix of 4 x Wynn's (think one was Black) and a bonus WB grey label magnum for $50

I only caught the tail end of the add so may have it completely wrong, and I cannot find it online to confirm.

I cannot find a way of selecting a store in another state on their site (only Tas), so it may show for others - has anyone else seen this?

Houghton Gladstones

 

[Piker]

No AC, I think it is Houghton Thomas Yule Shiraz .

Houghton Gladstones

selling recently for $30 on langtons so probably not that great of a deal. There are some available now if you're interested.

 

[AnonymousCoward]

No AC, I think it is Houghton Thomas Yule Shiraz .

Isn't the Gladstones the export version of the Thomas Yule (or am I getting confused?)-- Just going off the comment on the DM site about how this was an export version now available in Aus again.

 

[Piker]

I really think the Gladstones Shiraz and the Thomas Yule are 2 different wines.
If they were the same I would think Houghton would be putting the excellent show results of the latter on the former!

 

[ste667]

I think the member review on this page would add weight to the Gladstones Shiraz argument (recent review of a seemingly unavailable product).

According to finewineclub Winery in Focus – Houghton – Part Two | Fine Wine Club
"The Thomas Yule Shiraz was formally known as the Gladstones Shiraz.

 

[Piker]

Also when the Gladstones 2011 Shiraz has been exhibited at shows, it has had no success, unlike the Thomas Yule.

 

[Kohen]

Gladstones is a great wine when under $50ish - currently $75 down to $48 on cellarone

Are we sure it's Gladstone?
