Dans 'The South Aus Unmissable Mixed Six Red Pack' looks enticing.

 

[Whodoesthat]

Just an aside, picked up the remnants of the CM fest from last week..the cases of Grey and Twins already collected.. the regional showcase box et al for something different......at a tad over $15 pb delivered it should make easy, mid week quaffing, even if it's to say never again..statistically there has to be a good one..

Still available however no mention of wooden case. You would have thought they would have "shout" about the case.

How did you get this down to c.$15btl?

I believe $100 off (every T, D and Harry were going for Maverick) which I passed. That's ($199 - $100)/6 plus handling.

RE - Cleanskin GR11, 95 points, $50/6 at DM

Tasted this 2014 cleanskin - Langhorne Creek Shiraz - tonight, nothing to put me
off it so far, will see how it goes tomorrow.

DM's had it open on the sampling table and my first thought in comparison with
tonights taste is that it benefited from being open for a while.

Generally speaking, thought plenty was happening in the mouth.

Did not improve, with breathing, 24hrs later.

Would tell a friend to pick up a couple and see what they thought.

To drink, open - pour - repeat as required

A good enough quaffer at this $$, better than "some" dearer reds I've had.

The bottles in wooden case sure looks exquisite.
Speaking of wooden case, Costco have this Bordeaux collection for $133. I haven't a clue whether they are worth buy/drinking.
Any Bordeaux experts out there? BTW glass is "no names"

I am trying a bottle of the 2013 Maverick Twins GSM tonight. At first taste it is medium bodied with some length to it. Slightly peppery.

I am enjoying it.

Edit: Great deal for < $7/bottle. Thanks for the CM heads up.

Almost sounds like a nice wine.... :shock:

And I only have 11 3/4 bottles left.

I would expect white pepper in a GSM.

This thread is an enabler!

I'm attempting a buying ban but the box makes it ever so tempting

I would expect white pepper in a GSM.

I felt the cabernet blend was more peppery than the GSM

You may wish you bought more..... they punch way above the price paid (IMO)

You are spot on as usual AC....my bottles were not filtered well enough.
Crikes, you don't think it was the dandruff?

Nice work WDT. I found myself faced with a magnum of that Black Wattle Cabernet as an option to bring the total up to the threshold on one of my orders, and it seemed like a decent bet. It seems they ran out of the magnums though, and substituted the following mixed 6-pack instead:

Heirloom Barossa Shiraz 2014
Hare's Chase Ironscraper Shiraz 2013
Teusner Riebke Shiraz 2014
Ringland CR shiraz 2014
Cimicky Trumps 2012
Mitolo Reiver 2013

Hard to argue with that. On paper (according to Wine Companion anyway) it's actually the Reiver that might be the weak point in that pack, though it still sounds like it might be interesting. (@boomy, if you boomed on that, I'll be curious to hear what you have to say if you try one early.)
