You can’t make this stuff up!

Should be interesting. On their signup page there's logos for Ardbeg, Lark, Whistlepig, Mars, Glenlivet, and Johnnie Walker. Wouldn't think whisky is a "must shift now or it will 'go off'" kind of product, but discounted whisky is fine by me!Whiskymofo????

This is a mammoth producer on the Aussie wine scene. Their wines are not only among the best of the region, but the best of the continent. Any discussion about Australia's leading wineries that doesn't include this producer is, by default, incomplete.www.vinomofo.com

Was much cheaper via Langtons Carpe Diem 2 years back. Would be a bit past it's prime at this point and cork is pretty averageAny feedback on this

All those Clarendon Hill were good buying at $12 back in the clearance days. I think I averaged 2 corked out of each dozen, so they’d need to be cheap for me to buy again.Two years ago I bought a few bottles of Clarendon Hills Brookman Cabernet 2006 from Nicks. Some bottles were well past their prime, others great. Felt like a gamble.

That Mitolo Marsican got 89 points in the first review I found.
Any idea how much is the Marsican?Some more reviews
MARSICAN SHIRAZ - 2019
97 POINTS
Deep crimson. Intense blackberry, dark cherry, dark chocolate aromas with vanilla, marzipan notes. Well- concentrated blackberry dark chocolate marzipan flavours fine chocolaty textures, superb mid-palate volume and attractive minerally fresh acidity. Finishes firm with bittersweet/liquorice notes. Very good density and torque with alcohol in balance and should last the distance.

The big, brooding 2019 Marsican Shiraz delivers on every level, starting with fabulous fruit concertation and focus. Liquorice bullet, red wine reduction and roasted meat aromas rise up with lavish oak in solid support. Youthful and expressive, it then delivers waves of bold flavour with a swathe of well-ripened tannins supporting a finish of extraordinary length. This young bronco will deliver plenty in time but needs at least five years to hit its straps.
ANGUS HUGHSON, VINOUS, FEBRUARY 2023

The 2019 Marsican Shiraz is concentrated and intense. Brilliant fruit depth reveals a wide splay of raspberry freshness on the mid-palate through finish, while the tannins wrap around the mouth and induce chew and smack. This is a really pleasurable, brilliant wine. It is ripe and will appeal hugely to those who are attracted to plush tannins and sweet fruit. It is hefty without being overweight. Cool. 14.8% alcohol, sealed under natural cork and wax.
ERIN LARKIN, WINE ADVOCATE, AUGUST 2023

A big, heavy bottle for an impactful wine. Very dense. A morass of dark fruits, molten and almost llicorella of pungency, oozes across a landscape saturated with lavender, five-spice, licorice strap and mace. The oak, positioned well. The fruit, capable of handling almost anything thrown at it. Long and forceful. Southern RhĂ´ne of feel, without the tannic mettle. This has some way to go.

Inky, dark red and opaque in the glass. Heady aromas of dried herbs, cedar, underbrush, plum, mulberry and toasty, nutty oak. Full bodied, dark and powerfully flavoured. Plum, prune, earth and sweet spice flavours dominate the palate. Tannins and acidity are structured and provide plenty of shape.
AARON BRASHER, THE REAL REVIEW, AUGUST 2023
93 POINTS
Impressive, with warm baking spices that mingle with savoury black olive, touches of dark chocolate-covered espresso bean, intensely juicy cherry flavours and notes of raspberry puree. Shows terrific intensity and focus, with dense but wonderfully polished tannins. Drink now through 2034. 230 cases, 100 cases imported.

I asked the question but didn’t get a reply. My guess would be $80-$90?Any idea how much is the Marsican?
What did they drop the $320 Grand Pappy to? The box is nice, but it would need to be $50-60 before I’d consider it. McGuigan Philosophy went from $150 to $40.I asked the question but didn’t get a reply. My guess would be $80-$90?
Grand Pappy was offered at $50 on VM but was also offered on the Langtons staff sale for $35. 2018 vintage. I got a bottle and tried it, thought it was very good. Interestingly The $500 First Pick was also offered at $50 around the traps.What did they drop the $320 Grand Pappy to? The box is nice, but it would need to be $50-60 before I’d consider it.

Broker told me it will be $150pb.Any idea how much is the Marsican?
too beaucoup!Broker told me it will be $150pb.
I think I may have found a critic of this 2017 drop in Vivino that made me to cool my jets on this one...What are the thoughts about the Brockenchack Jack Harrison Shiraz 2017 ?
