Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[jasonking]

I was looking at the Langton's deals on cases and I was comparing the cost of some of their wines when I came across this.
Dan Murphy has a pretty good deal on the 2012 Penfolds RWT @104.95 in any 6 if you order it for delivery. That's $55 off per bottle! (RRP $159.99 per bottle)

Very tempting.
How come no special emails to MyDanMurphy's members?

Yeah I couldn't pass it up, would never pay the $150 but $105 got my attention

Ordered 1 today. It was the second bottle in the cart, when I added 4 more quaffers the total price actually decreased!

I ordered 3 ... will sit nicely in my wine fridge next to the 2009 and 2010 St Henri's .. amongst other things.

Even better was the deal they had last year when they offered a free RWT if you purchased 6 bottles of other Penfold wines!

Yes I thought the exact same. Have you cracked a 2010 Henri yet? I haven't had the guts to crack any yet.

No not yet .... I opened one of the 2009 St Henri's at Easter - which went down really well. I got the 2009 St. Henri 6 pack from a Vinomofo secret deal a few years back.
I've only got 4 of the 2010 so I'm saving them for when they are closer to peak drinking ... which last check is another 7 to 10 years!

Except it was the 2011 vintage - there's a reason they were looking to clear those stocks out.

Definitely too young to be drinking now - cracked one open when my cases arrived. Hopefully will mature into the gloriousness that the reviewers describe

 

[AnonymousCoward]

Kindly reveal what's in Langton's goody box. When tired of Vinomofo offerings might consider a punt.

The boxes are different (I guess they have a few variations), so whatever I got might not be what you'd get if you ordered one, but from memory, I got:
- 1 x Mount Mary Quintet *
- 1 x Cullen Diana Madeline *
- 1 x d'Arenberg Dead Arm
- 1 x Majella Coonawarra *
- 1 x De Iuliis (already consumed so don't remember what it was)
- 1 x Wynns V&A Lane
- 1 x Yabby Lake single vineyard pinot *
- 1 x Farrside By Farr *
- 1 x Legende Paullic *
- 1 x Rivetto Barolo *
and 2 others that I've either drunk or couldn't locate doing a sweep across the cellar.

Edit: this took a while to get back to you because I don't track what I got from where (been meaning to finish building/coding an app for this). There's some of the above I'm 100% sure of (I've marked them with a star). The rest are based on what I could either find in notes or poking in the cellar.

I tried the 2011 RWT on release and thought it was an excellent wine. Don't write off every wine just because it comes from a poorer vintage.

I'm a huge RWT fan Have 2001, 2002, 2004, 2008, 2011 cellared and will soon be getting the 2012, and have drunk pretty much all the other vintages (out of my collection, or on QF flights ). RWT has never been a bad wine - even the "not as good years". But do you think any vendor (especially a low margin vendor like Dans) would be giving away RWT by buying Bin 28 if it could be sold at anywhere near a decent price? My personal opinion is that it's a fine wine as is, and we'll have to see what it's like in 5+ years, but I don't think it was quite the "bargain" that some think it might be.

That's a good variety of premium wines. The Barolo alone is worth 15%. Might consider when wine supply is low.
BTW was the Grange in your box?

 

[blackcat20]

Still waiting for my Dans mystery order to be packed, let alone shipped. Hopefully they are busy tucking a bottle of Grange in my box.

Pretty sure you stand a good chance.
The Black Cat is coming!!

(FYI NSW Lottery uses "Black Cat" as a winner everyone hopes will call upon them)

Does the Dan's RWT offer expire Wed 29th? Seriously want to have a lick but currently in China and the Great Fire Wall is blocking Dans and causing me all sorts of grief

Can't see a date anywhere on the item page...

Dan must be up to no good to the Chinese.

My Dans mystery of has finally been packed so should have it by mid-week.

And picked up 2010 Noble One at Costco today for $21.xx. Dans have the 2011....

Or not. Dans just called to apologise for the delay due to unexpected demand. Here I was hoping they were going to tell me I'd win the Grange.
