Uh Oh.. another box of cooking wine ?? ..
Well it took a while but we got there - after a couple calls and a weeks wait Senior CM dude finally addressed my queries - the Krug has only been in CM's Tanunda storage whouse (12deg) for a short period before sale - it came direct from Moet Hennessey Aust so I think you could reasonably assume it has been whoused correctly since arrival into AU.
Proof of the pudding will be Sat nt now that friends have been released from captivity
FTR: whouse = warehouse and not coughhouse.
Actually a slight last minute change of plans so we didn’t crack oneHow did your Krug go? Cracked one at lunch yesterday and I'm satisfied with the provenance. Was classic Krug and some nice bottle development too.
Under Wraps Clare Valley Riesling 2016 isSeems to be a pretty big Dan's sale on at the moment. A lot of "under wraps" stuff though. Anyone spied any winners amongst them?

Anyone know what the off dry Riesling is?
Most of the under wraps offers are less then $2 under the prior usual price and a couple I looked at are actually more than a prior offer.Seems to be a pretty big Dan's sale on at the moment. A lot of "under wraps" stuff though. Anyone spied any winners amongst them?

Any existing members feel like a new friend?
Happened to be near my local VC store today so popped in to check on my click & collect orders. As expected they had no stock available in store and suggested me to call customer service, which I did. Quick check verified there is no stock in BNE nor anywhere else in QLD for that matter.
I was positively surprised that instead of trying to cancel and refund I was offered free delivery from interstate within 5 business days. Now that’s good customer service!
I have now been sent the ready for collection email - its 39 bottles with 9 tracking numbers.... I guess they could close my account, but I understand title transfers to me if I pick them up ?

Yep, I ended up with 2009 SBS. An old white is much less appealing than an old red...hadn't even contemplated that could be what would turn up.The UMAMU SBS 2009 and CabSav/Merlot2006 may have been better left in a museum
somewhere Electrotec, happy though to have supported a Bushfire fund.
My email has a note to say :this was the same email containing MAYREWARD to help unlock the next level, but I doubt that I'll ever make it to Bud
any updates to share?
And never NEVER post what you do here or anywhere

Has anyone tried this before? Any good? 93 points HH on previous vintagesStonier Jimjoca Pinot Noir 2017 $24.17 in six pack at Cellar One.
in my experience, most retailers try to fulfil orders, even via interstate, to keep the sale and customer happy
