However, this offer is online only, so not that useful anyway as all the deals were in-store.

the Sensi Barolo 2013 $30 deal is/was online

I opened a bottle last night. I’m no Barolo drinker but I’ll tell you this much, decant decant decant, it was only showing itself properly at hour three. I opened it way too late, so didn’t get to properly enjoy it. But what I did have it’s a lovely wine. I ended up with 13 bottles and I’m very happy to have these in the cellar for the next 10 years

if you're now interested to try more Barolo, then perhaps consider Linnaea Trifulau Barolo 2013 - GW94 - $60 (free delivery with any 3 bottles), possibly the best value one since Cascina Fontana Barolo 2013 (though there is also Trediberri Barolo 2016) - even better is that its producers are now local Melburnians


I wonder if BWS are having an EOFY sale?

they already have wines, including super/premium, on clearance - in Melbourne, for example, check QV, Abbotsford, Doncaster - however, unfortunately....

The 25% off wine sale at BWS has been discontinued.

:(


Dan's have been having a clearance at the moment, but not really at the same level as Coles group.

also more store-specific, such as Lanson Extra Age


I tried another Dans today for the Mount Mary, showed a guy the ticket photo and he said yeah, no worries, just take it to the counter. Was counting my blessing but the girl at the register said she just needed to check with the manager, who said “no...but we are about to have an EOFY sale so keep an eye out...“

it already started last week?


This is why I go to Dans at a time of night after VC is shut!

mine shut at the same time


There are a few tips that can be picked up in the forum. One would be using places like mywineguy or the wine collective to build referral credit by inviting friends and making sure bonus credits like birthday bonuses are set. Another would be keeping an eye out for codes for cellarmasters. Often i will even buy a $50 voucher from gumtree for a few dollars, and make sure to take advantage of cashrewards or shopback when using them (waiting for the increased %).

I have a few spare $50 Cellarmasters vouchers that are meant to expire at the end of this month in case anyone is interested

Even their clearance items are $$$ e.g. Henschke Henrys Seven on clearance for $39 and can be had easily for $29. Wonder what price they had it at originally?

I’d be keen for a voucher if possible.
 
My Wine Guy is having their End of Vintage Sale - 15% off a limited range using the coupon code EOVS20.

They have the 2016 Cake Wines McLaren Vale cab sav for $10.99 as a single, or $9.99 in a case of 16 (pre-coupon). Using the coupon will take the price down to $8.50 in a six pack. Or can use a referral to buy 10 bottles for $99.9 less $30 referral benefit, resulting in a cost per bottle of less than $7! Sells for $20 at Nicks, who gave the 2016 vintage 91 points. The 2015 vintage appears to have decent reviews on Vivino (for what it's worth). I'm picking up 10 as a mid-week quaffer.

So close! Bad luck. I feel guilty for having got through.

Damn. This means I now have to scope out FC, VC and Dans every few days till June 30. I found more WB Platinum for $83 in VC but was told the 3 I picked up previously for $60 were a pricing error. Should have been the WB black. So can’t really complain....
 
Just back from Liquorland. No deals currently although I did notice various lines that had either a red dot or a blue dot sticker on the front of the pricing label. Not sure what exactly that means. Could be items that are marked for an upcoming sale. Noticed it on the likes of the Wolf Blass Grey label and St Hugo. Worth maybe keeping an eye on it
 
Just popped into my local FC in Brisbane and it was all cleared out except for a couple bottles of Teusner Righteous Mataro for $75. Couldn't see vintage as it was in a box under lock and key.

If it had have been the shiraz I may have purchased but probably still a little too dear for the Mataro

Which store is your Local in Brisbane?
 
Does anybody have any information on this? It is part of VC 6 for $100 deal. RRP is $50.
Terre Terre Down to Earth Cabernet Sauvignon

The only review I can find is Sam Kim 95 pts but I find his reviews useless.
 
Ok question - I got an email from St Hallett last night and saw they were selling magnums of the 2014 Old Block for $95 so I proceeded to order a 6 a pack (half thinking that it was likely to be an error).

I received an email from them late this afternoon saying it was a human error blah blah and they are only going to give me 1 magnum at that price.

Should I...... a) be thankful for at least getting 1 bottle and not having the entire order cancelled or b) kick up a huge stink and complain that they should honour the full order?

I am a little torn!

Go with you option a. You had an inkling it was an error. They could easily give you nothing. Save yourself the grief of a battle you're not likely to win and know you've done the right thing and so have they.

Be happy you're getting one, they arent required to honour an error price.
