Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[year of the roo]

Kalimna is a remarkable wine. I had a 1999 last night. Although the $45 RRP is outrageous. I had no hesitation in getting a bottle of the 2018 for $20.

18 over the 17 you reckon?

18 over the 17 you reckon?

Yes. Purely on how long Penfolds says it will cellar for. I need to have as long as possible on the cellaring date.

2017 to 2030
2018 to 2038

Has anyone tried the Wynns Pedro Ximinez? I don't really rate the black label shiraz and don't love the V&A wines

Wynns PX is good if you like your fortified... Can't go wrong at that price.

 

[redmaxo]

Good one. Bin 51 riesling for $11 also nice

Now now. The rule of thirds would say it'll be at its best 2024 - 2031, then downhill.

Kalimna is a remarkable wine.

Damn, been after some of them and I'm just down the road at Avalon Beach
Addendum... just consoled myself with an order of $11 Wynns black label Shiraz 2012

I haven't been a purchaser of many penfolds products but I finally found the second entry in the last eight years. Back in may2016, my drinking mate and I had the 2003 Koonunga Hill. Yes i hear you say, the cheapest or close to it. I think i had it for a decade and what an amazing one off wine. We both gave it 8.4/10 and it was tremendous. Everything there, fruit, colour, nose,body,structure. It's one of those you remember for decades not for the fact that you could buy one at Dannys for $13.60 at the time of imbibement, crikes what a ridiculous thing for me to have written, but for the fact it blew us out of the park.

join the newsletter. This gives 10% off current prices and free shipping. Use code SINGAPORE25 (can be a bit fiddly applying the code for some reason) to take off $25 which makes a couple of options worthwhile. Bin 28 either 2017 or 2018 for $20 delivered or bottle of father grand tawny for $7 probably some others that might be reasonable deals but that seems like the best two

You legend!

Agreed, as overrated and overpriced as Penfolds is the kalimina is good.

Now that I corrected the typo I made a bottle is on the way.
Thanks @boomy

1 - 2 yrs ago I went to Penfolds tasting, the guy said " as we know 389 is called poor man's Grange. 28 is called poor man's 389." How poor I am, I just ordered one bin28.
Maybe Koonunga hill Shiraz will be called poor man's 28 in the future.
