I am getting 3 emails a day from Dan ATM !!! He is trying to turn me into an alcoholic ....
Iv'e noticed grays don't have Pirammima's acj icon blend up on auction much any more. That is a shame. I found it good value. Is there anything in particular anyone would recommend from Pirra. I'm told their Petit Verdot is good.Forgive m for posting so many James Dominguez Secret Wines but I find it rather like doing a crossword Secret Wine #169 is: Bellarmine Wines || Full details of the wine On another front like Dr Ralph I am enamoured of Pirrammima's reds and find these days that Grays auctions are the only way to buy (certainly price-wise) I just snapped up a sixer of Pirramimma Vineyard Select Shiraz 2016 for $90, actual purchase at auction was $59 but buyer's premium and a stonking $20 delivery jacked the price up, I've yet to try any of their offerings and be disappointed....
ACJ comes and goes.Iv'e noticed grays don't have Pirammima's acj icon blend up on auction much any more. That is a shame. I found it good value. Is there anything in particular anyone would recommend from Pirra. I'm told their Petit Verdot is good.
Thanks. I'll keep an eye out for the war horse. Have never tried it. Have you ever tried any of the peter jorgenson range on grays? I've seen it up there for years. Does anybody know anything about it?ACJ comes and goes.
White label range is good value for under $12 a bottle - especially the petit verdot.
War Horse comes up often. $35 is my target price.
Perhaps the other wine worth mentioning that's including in their Christmas sale is St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2013 - CM(WF)/TS/JH95, HH94, GW/JO92 - $26.50 (or $23.17 after $20 referral credit)
My purchases (three packs of the premium reds) did not track and upon checking today, it seems that cashback is not applicable if a gift card is used. Further, it is only paid on the ex GST amount. This differs significantly from your figures above, qaz. Does anyone know if CM have always had those terms in the very fine print? I thought I’d checked on Friday, but didn’t keep a screen shot. Shopback are really starting to annoy me with their dodginess of not paying on the full amount including GST and their fine print. Cashback I’ll miss out on is $135.
By contrast, Cashrewards pays 5.6% on full amount including GST and even when a gift card is used.
Based on recent comments by a couple of long time members (qaz and Dr Ralph), it looks like CM not paying cash back on amounts paid with gift cards is very new.
yes, Guilford is good for clearance wines/prices - some stores are now reducing them down to $10 when only one or two remain in stock - such as chardonnay, pinot noir, shiraz, cabernet - but not champagne - 8% Cashrewards today

Champagne and Penfolds are back on CM, but with the recent reports of cashback issues, might not be worth the risk.
Interesting looking at the sizing for kennards - they list a 72 case wine locker as1.2m sq. That feels more like 40-50 case locker to me. I find the inconsistency between different storage places quite frustrating for price comparison purposes.
Issues with ShopBack, not Cashrewards - Penfolds Rwt Barossa Valley Shiraz (single-bottle) 2017 $113.36 after $50 off, 14% Cashrewards, 5% off WISH
According to KSS it is 72 cases of the wine box they sell.Interesting looking at the sizing for kennards - they list a 72 case wine locker as1.2m sq. That feels more like 40-50 case locker to me.
