Prepare yourself for the barrage mate

None. As much as they will tell you if you don't buy now you'll miss out, you can always buy later at lower prices. But even though, I can't see that I'll buy anything. Just not worth it these days.

 

[Steady]

Never say never, I’m open to the heavily discounted buys that stack with other offers

I would need to see a pretty big discount to get me back.

Uncle Dan's discovery workshop ($40 but you get a voucher of same value) now ready for signup. All I can see are the Sydney events.

What no 707......

No 2017 707, too cool to ripen up the Cabernet apparently, the grapes have gone to 407.

My local DM had tastings of 6 Bin reds and the riesling. Even had a taste of the Grange!

Did they have a tasting fee?

There seems to be a lot of staff changes going on at Treasury Wines which owns the Penfolds label. No one seems to know what it means but prices for their wines still seem unreasonably high in Australia.

Yes, I tried all 7 wines. Even the the Bin 23 was nice.
