Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

Drat! I missed the carpe diem - I didn't buy more wine and therefore I win!
I had a cart filled from the private sale the day before - interesting some items in Carpe Diem were cheaper, but I stuck with it because I wanted the Wolf Blass Platinum.
The $18.50 delivery takes the shine off a bit…

Yes, I saw different prices for the same wine in different sales.
I experimented & observed that the carts were separate & both subject to delivery fees. So I accepted a higher price on one item in the sake containing others that I really wanted that came to less than an extra $18.50 delivery cist
 
Carpe diem still seems to be up although not the range of yesterday

I’m not a bit red drinker, but stumbling across this thread and the link, I couldn’t help but notice the 1847 WINERY First Pick Shiraz, Barossa Valley 2020 reduced from $480 to $50. It retails elsewhere about $480, so I’m wondering if this is a steal?

You'll find this wine on multiple sites for a similar discounted price over the past couple of years.

1847/Ch Yaldara is one of a number of wineries whose marketing strategy is to set stupidly high RRP and then systematically sell at a fraction of that fanciful price, often as "mystery" wines, sometimes not. Sometimes they are a good deal at the low price, sometimes not even then.

Thanks, I figured it’d turn out to be something like that.

I would probably try to avoid 2020 but if you can pick up 2018 (I picked them up on Langtons auctions and Carpe Diem for about $35-$40), it is actually a very decent wine. Whether it should be priced at as 4x Standish is debatable. Very debatable.
 
I know not many order through Winestar however they do have a premium Barossa Red, down from$120 to $20 per bottle. This will be the Light Valley Colonel Shiraz 2019 and available HERE for $20.

Review by Ray J:
Opulent, powerful concentrated; this is Barossa with polish. Sourced from low yielding shiraz vines with the fruit treated with kid gloves from the start. Hand picking, whole bunch fermentation, hand lunging and direct pressing to American and French oak. It works wonders. Ripe black fruits on the nose showing black olive and blackberry. The palate is plush with a grainy chalky influence. Rich and chewy with a polished finish. Drink: 2024 - 2036; Price: $120.00; Rating: 96 Points; Ray Jordan
