Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[georgehall]

Not a deal, but a question about Dan Murphys.

Has anyone heard about whether Dans are doing the Penfolds exploration tasting that they did last year? Good opportunity to try the latest release of all the range, and it should be around this time of year should it?

I received a similar offer of $5 off after a $50 spend..I'm obviously not one of their big spenders!

Also noticed they dropped price to $17.90

Yes, tickets were released a couple of weeks ago - I mentioned them previously in the champagne thread but forgot to post elsewhere, sorry

Damn, disappointing I never got the notification, I received it last year.

All spots seem to be sold...Newcastle West looks like it has all 10 spots left...perhaps something can be read in to that.

 

[Captain Halliday]

OT but my brother just called to say a mate had just flicked him two tickets to the BNE Penfolds masterclass tomorrow night at 7pm... and offered one to me.

I’m flying to MEL tomorrow at... 7PM.

Looks like the GSM is Murray Street Black Label.

The Murray St seems like a good deal for $8.90 - I signed up some time in the past for the DM unlimited free deliveries so I'm quite enjoying the ability to order just 2 or 3 bottles at a time from the secret selections. Added one of each of the Hare's Chase.

 

[Buzzard]

I recently received a $25 CM birthday voucher, no minimum spend. I also received a birthday email with a $25 voucher attached, also no minimum spend.
Upon checking I discovered that they have different numbers so if you get the same it's worth checking.
And behold during the last couple of days I received the annual WOW CM shareholder offer including free delivery. Ordered the reds yesterday and dementia will cause me to order them again today

I've taken the punt as well. I've generally enjoyed their wines.

If you have a spare $50 voucher (with CR and egift card) this CM Mystery Barossa Shiraz 2016 would be a decent punt, the wine appears to be Heirloom Barossa Valley Shiraz 2016. I don't mind the Heirloom/Dandelion wines myself.

Hint: Sometimes you can pick up CM $50 vouchers off Gumtree (I grabbed 'one' this week for $5)

Also Langtons have the new 'Woolworths Shareholders Special Offer 2018' out. Possibly of interest to some. Simple google search will find page.

Hares Chase Ironscraper Shiraz 2015 back on as Secret Selection at DM @ $14.90. The 15 is coming along nicely and shows promise (needs 1-2hr air)

Also available is the 2013 vintage by Hares Chase, but it appears DM staff arent sure if its meant to be 'Hares Chase MARANANGA Shiraz' or the 'Hares Chase IRONSCRAPER Shiraz' The description for the 13 seems jumbled up of both wines. I received the IRONSCRAPER 2013, but other users have reported receiving the MARANANGA 2013

Still waiting for the 16 to drop as secret selection. I did hear the winery has been sold? Not sure what that will mean for the label.

Hares Chase 'Marananga' or 'Ironscraper'? Shiraz 2013

Hares Chase Ironscraper Shiraz 2015

Chonka, I was about to say.... it has dropped:

https://www.danmurphys.com.au/product/DM_MYSTERY79/secret-selection-barossa-valley-shiraz-2015

However, note that the URL says 2015 wheres the product title shows:
Secret Selection Barossa Valley Shiraz 2016

Well, i ordered it - and guess what is on my order / invoice:

Secret Selection Barossa Valley Shiraz 2015 (Bottle)

FFS... On the phone with them now... Stay tuned...

Its a different listing then the 2015, so probably still the 2016? Sitting in my cart as 2016

Yeh mine was 16 in the cart. After i bought it, went into my purchases and it showed the 15.

I rang them and the girl then rang the distribution store where they comfirmed it was showing as 16 on their system. They assured me i will recieve the 16.

I think you should be ok....

 

[redbigot]

I had the 2013, 2015 and 2016 Ironscraper in a tasting set and the 2016 was ranked behind the others by me and the group vote, there was some reservation about the acid balance of the 2016.

 

[unfunkable]

winestar have some of the new release penfolds
good prices if you still have some 33% gift cards acquired via amex deal awhile back

 

[Whining&dining]

I know that GWD wines don't figure greatly in the desirability stakes here but occasionally they put out something interesting, I've done bit of sleuthing on this one: $9 delivery Australia wide | 100% money back guarantee | Australian owned and can only deduce it's possibly: SmithCullam Shiraz 2007 (vintage notwithstanding). Seems like pretty good value for $13.99 a bottle down from $60 and probably reflects its drinking window.... Happy to be corrected on this

 

[Rug]

Also noticed they dropped price to $17.90

I ordered the $17.90 2013 bottle and got Hares Chase Shiraz; not ironscraper ( Melbourne ).
Cheers Rug
