Vinomofo Wine Deals

[kevviek]

Subscribe to Winestar. They have some ridiculously good deals at times. Free shipping on a dozen bottles, and the shipping is fast. I have rarely had a dud from them in 15-20 years of patronage.

This prompted me to have another look. I thought Winestar always had reliable wines, but I stopped buying when they got on the Curtis bandwagon.

This mystery wine looks interesting, I am guessing it is Tim Smith although alcohol doesn’t match. Interested if anyone is familiar with it, and/or can advise if 22 was a good vintage in Barossa.

Winestar mystery wines (almost) always appear in plain sight elsewhere on their site, usually easy to match up. There are plenty of good reds coming out of Barossa from the 2022 vintage, if you like and are familiar with a wine from previous good vintages, 2022 is probably a safe buy,

If you aren't on Nicks mailing list(s) do yourself a favour and join up for wines and spirits offers, fair prices, lots of new releases and imports, free freight over $250 no matter how many bottles (1 will do) and great service.

I have done - Whisky or Cognac/Armagnac, not wine.

Heh, ok I'll allow it.

Does anyone out there buy from Kemeny's anymore? I have done once or twice in the past - mainly secret label semillons. Haven't heard them mentioned by anyone in yonks...

Hmm, looks like I placed one order in 2021, nothing since.
Just had a quick look, they have Mitolo Savitar 2019 @ $44.95 as a Secret Label.

Haha, that's the one I just noticed, seems an ok price for a wine that ppl here seem to like - I'm not keen to pay that kind of price atm with all the eofy bargain blah blah on

 

[AUElwood]

Is Mitolo Savitar any good? VM still has the vintage 2020 of this one at $29.9.

Shiraz 2020 - Mayday Deal #49004 - Red Wine

Polished but powerful. A celebration of red and dark fruits with mocha and liquorice nuances thrown in for good measure. Finessed and incredibly fine-grained savoury tannins.

I've never had it but that sure is a lot cheaper than kemeny's mystery deal price, though the JH guide rates the 2019 one pt above the 2020

I thought with an MGS I’d have a good chance of finding it, but only the mystery wine came up :-(

If you are on the Winestar mailing list, the email re mystery wines usually contains the tasting notes that appear on the plain listing, google will often find it for you as well as filtering the other listings to search for it.

Anyone had the

Parous Stonehouse Shiraz 2016 – EOFY Deal?​

Not bad for $119 for six if reviews are to go by. Also any discount codes kicking around? Thanks in advance.

Very rarely. Maybe once every two years max. Usually for Tyrrell's single vineyards Semillon which are 6-7 years old and come up at around $20-$30 from time to time and for Ricard.
Kemeny's is an other era. The actual shop is now Woolworth Metro and only a small area remains for Kemenys which is now only a liquor store.

I've tried the 2021 Shiraz at $15 and would recommend it! There wines are generally pretty smart

 

[neozelatino]

If anyone has a discount code they’d like to share, I’d greatly appreciate it!

My broker just emailed me that she is offering $30 off if 2 cases are purchased (effectively 2x$15 coupons IF buying 2 cases).
Also I was told that there is a flash EOFY sale on tonight without much specifics.

EOFY for $30 off for 2 cases. Not great but us beggars can’t be choosers!

Remember, a case can consist of 6 bottles if you choose wisely.
