Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[qaz]

I found the Vickery was a nice enough wine, but it didn't wow me. For my money, I'd pay a few bucks more ($20 / bottle w/ discount) for the Heirloom Eden Valley Riesling 2013 which is still the best Riesling I've had around this price range. At the very least, add a couple to your mixes if you haven't tried it before.

I love the Heirloom Riseling too. My wine direct broker rang me up and offered me some at $15 a bottle recently, if you want more, perhaps give them a call!

thanks - have you tried 2013 Dandelion Wonderland of the Eden Valley Riesling, also by Elena Brooks?

I ordered some Wolf Blass Grey Label Shiraz from Cellermasters on 16th December. It has not arrived and when I check the status online it is still at "hand packed".
I have not ordered from Cellermasters for a couple of years is this the normal?

Greetings ellen ,

I had an order in mid October take a full 14 + days to arrive after payment.

It is still marked on their site as "onforwarded".

It'll get there, but given the public holidays - could be delayed.

We are in country Vic.

Thanks ozshiraz for your reply.

I will await its arrival now with reassurance.

Langtons is having two auctions closing today that have no buyers premium (17.5% from memory).

Most of the bids reflect this, but you might find some bargains.

It can be. Ive had orders take several weeks. Sometimes there are issues if you pay by gift card. Best to call them after 10 days of your order if there's no action.

I did indeed use a gift card for part payment (the Myer $100 off voucher). I called them an hour ago and they said they had many Christmas and New Year orders, and orders placed after the 11 Dec would be delivered next week as many of their workers are on a holiday break.
So I will wait until the end of next week.

Been getting lots of good offers from Langtons and Cracka over the holidays - but no time or $ to buy any. The Hares Chase Ironscraper 2013 for $25 looked very good...

Okay, I weakened and got 6....want to taste what other here have been waxing lyrical...

I doubt you'll be disappointed. It's a very nice wine, and great buying at $25 a bottle.

Not a great price for the Marius, I recommend you try and get on Rogers list!

I thought I heard a rumour that Marius prices have gone up. Maybe I'm mis-remembering.

I doubt you'll be disappointed. It's a very nice wine, and great buying at $25 a bottle.
