Rockfords discussion

Unfortunately can’t find the University House offer, but these are the prices at Rathdowne Cellars, apparently Rockford’s only official Melbourne retailer

Any idea when the BP will be released for non SWs?

Hoping to visit to Radelaide early next month.

March...

The Black Shiraz is the beginning of December so no go either

A little birdy tells me that the 2011 BP Magnum has been released into cellar door (for non stonewallers) "while stocks last".

Called and confirmed the 2011 BP magnum are available but no mail or phone orders for us plebs. Hopefully it's still available in December.

Give it a year or so of being a mailing list member and they will send one out

Not a Stonewall member but been ordering in last 2 year so they let me order via a phone a 2011 magnum.

Has anyone drank the 2011 BP yet? I got some on a Buzzard wine tour but they are still slumbering in the fridge.

I haven't had any of mine yet - thinking I will crack the first next year.
IIRC BC20 has?

It will be 2021 before I open any of mine.

Anyone have details on how much the 11' Magnums are going for at the cellar door?

When I pushed the 2008 magnums in 2014, they were $180/bottle. Given Rockford's pricing doesn't increase by much, I reckon it would be under$200. You could always just call and find out though.

I think they told me $200 when I was ordering some other wine - the '10's were $195

 

[Buzzard]

Maybe +1 & I should have popped in and grabbed one each as we drove past.

I paid $200 for 2011 magnum plus $13.50 for shipping.

I was there on Friday and was trying to cajole some current BP out of them but they wouldn't budge on the March 1 2018 release date for NBs. Mentioned that I had been in a group and that Holly had given us special service in the cellar. Dropped Buzz's name but to no avail. Will just have to visit again next year.

Hope you Stonewallers leave us NBs some.

 

[Buzzard]

When we organise the next tour I'm sure that some arrangement will be reached.

I was there on Saturday and same story. Must say +1 wasn't impressed at all with the tasting experience, that what happens when you stand in a small room with all the plebs and without access to the good stuff...

I had the 2011 Rifle Range a couple of months back, and it was in a good place.
