Doesn't say if they pay return freight.

If you don't like it now you probably won't like it later, it will always be a very savoury wine.

Thanks @olympicwiz and @redbigot . Probably I will just leave it and see how it transforms in a couple of years.

Re Grays I noticed there are some liquidation wine auctions. Anyone knows about the brand name Jarressa Estate and Torresan Estate?

I bought (but have not yet tried) some Jaressa wines from Vinomofo - they made some highly rated shiraz in 2017 and 2018. From WineCompanion, only showing those at 94 points or more:

There were a few Jaressa Wines on Vinomofo a while back, the one I bought (one of the Regional Reveal series) I sent back. But I bought a couple of labelled 6-packs of Shiraz on Grays at $17++, was expecting Chinese market back labels, but not at all on the one box I opened. Didn't open the other box as they sent me the wrong wine. Natural cork seal.
I also bought the first 6-pack of the 2015 Vintage Cuvée Méthode Traditionnelle Adelaide Hills at about $10pb, it's Ok, some complexity, a little on the dry side, going price has jumped a bit now.

I have bought this one Shiraz / Syrah 2017 Auction (0016-10733898) | Grays Australia
Thinking the worst case it would go into SpagBol sauce (SWMBO recently opened one of my prized reds for her sauce)
When I tried it - I immediately bid and won another sixer.

The box is different to the one in the picture - it doesn't say "Cleanskin" anywhere. Massive cough-off bottle screaming quality and 15% alc stated (said 14% in the listing). Nothing medium about it - it is big, between your eyes fruit bursting shiraz. I didn't expect it from 2017.

The cork is natural and feel as if it was just bottled. But the wine is definitely aged a bit.

A few added in Melb stores last week with 10% off only so no interest yet. Needs a fair reduction

If there’s anything worthwhile from Grays at the moment, I’d love to know. Cheers.

Yes.
Or No.

It depends on what you are looking for.

Be more specific and I might have some suggestions. (Type of wine, varietal, price-range.)

I like Cabernet blends, Pinot noir, shiraz - up to $20-$30 a bottle.
