$10 is a good price for it, if I remember correctly there was a great deal on cellarmasters for $50 off $120 and they that's what they sold in 12's - minus cash rewards and woolworths discount code brought it down circa $6.50 a bottle - bargain of the year (I think end of 2016)

got my 2013 for $4.40 a bottle - crazy times!

I saw Pilatus wasn't happy with the '18

Vinomofo Wine Deals

Anyone tried the ‘18 Maverick cab blend Disappointing...no where near the typical Maverick Twins quality from the past lacks richness, body and length
www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au

but earlier vintages look to have been popular and Dan's are selling the '17 not the 18. Ordered half a dozen.

What is the photo showing 'Barrel Select'?

I'm in for 6, was always a good quaffer at $10 a bottle.

I checked their website earlier before buying. Maverick make 2 versions of the Twins Bordeaux blend:
'Standard'

2016 Maverick Twins Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc - Maverick Wines

All of the fruit came from 1.58 Ha of the biodynamic/organic Barossa Ridge vineyard behind the winery. The vines are on about 50 cm of Nuriap sand over medium to soft friable clay at the eastern foothills of the Barossa Ranges, meaning the roots have had to reach down for the water. After 25...

and a barrel select:

2018 Maverick Twins Barrel Select Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc - Maverick Wines

Our label painting of 4 thoroughbreds is by Sydney-based artist Charles Billich, one of the art world's living icons and a lover of our like-minded Maverick wines, and reflects the 4 noble varieties in this blend. Our five beautiful Sommeliers all want to introduce you to this wine - if you...
www.maverickwines.com.au

The standard on the website is a 2016 vintage and $29 , The barrel select is a 2017 and $31.50

The photo in the Dan's listing shows the barrel select - but the text doesn't mention.
I'm unsure if the barrel select is significantly different, or if it's just a label used in better vintages.
Though they do have their 2017 GSM available in both standard and barrel select.

Will be interesting to see what actually shows up - I'm assuming it'll be the 17 barrel select as pictured.

I haven't tried the Canberra Shiraz, I've tried the Hunter valley Shiraz which is good value at $30 from cellar door price , I'm not sure what vintage you are looking at but if it is under $30 it's worth it.
