A busy forum this arvo whilst I was lazily enjoying a 2015 Top paddock Pinot for starters and then a never before tried 2005 Fairbank Cab/Merlot(78/22) from Bendigo. Three of us had nearly four hours to talk about Vinomofo, Pauline Hanson, U2's latest blu-ray, Super Hi def telees, and all things to save the planet, but after we did that in the first fifteen minutes, it was time to really get deep with the conversation. All fun, but I went thru many pages here and the best post, and correct me if I am wrong, was AC keeping, or nearly keeping his finger off the Buy Now Button. Second to that was someone else who I think luckily chose to arrange the letters in his monicker correctly saying he is going to ditch the Allegiace shiraz that hasn't been delivered yet. Am I wrong here, did I miss a review as my six bott case thru The wine guy are waiting for daddy.
The Fo never cease to attract us with those offers and wasn't it AC himself who said deals would become skinnier and sinnier.(didn't mean to leave the k out but it's good). They may be as skinny as Queen Lattifa's g string, but they are still there. And doesn't the free shipping excite everyone.
Just don't forget to post your reviews, and if they are harsh, so beit, but at least they are honest on the Nice Wines I Have Had forum.
ps...nearly forgot...those white label wolfies certainly have a stack of cudos. I cannot remember having any at all, but my guess is that for $25, they pack one hell of a punch, plus the cellaring potential would have to be great. Can someone enlighten me as to the flavour profiles from personal experience. Ta.
and finally.......a query from someone
There may be a bit of price fixing on the websites but I don't think wineries are making wines specifically to be sold on VinoMofo.
You wanna bet your house on it? I was listening to a local sunday morning wine radio program and the winemaker that was on, a name that I can't remember nor the winery, specifically said they make wine for the Fo. Add Cantoniere , and quite possibly the latest one I bought, the cool climate shiraz Mussolini. I don't really care so long as I like it and it offers good value. When they quote sixty bucks retail, it should taste like a premium product. Otherwise, it's going back.
Did I tell you about my mate who got to drink 12 wines, a case, for free after returning 12 cases in a row. Of course I am joking, but I think there would be some who returned 2 or 3 in a row. Wozza, you one of them?
