Vinomofo Wine Deals

Hi, got the same email and leaving it alone. Please see my TNs on admittedly different Maverick but in the same RRP price bucket here

If it was $30-$35 and a bit of a wine drought then maybe. I think for $50 you should demand an absolutely spectacular wine in this current stress environment.

If $50 is burning your pocket, I would rather jump on McGuigan Philosophy here on VM (I split it with a friend and hopefully will taste it soon)
Be interested to know your thought on the McGuigan when you get round to it. Cheers
 
I tried it yesterday at my local Japanese that allowed BYO.

I thought it was fantastic to my taste. The Bordeaux blend (72%Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 11% Malbec, 6% Petit Verdot) works very well, it is a powerful wine yet very well structured and balanced, has fine acids, great not overpowering tannins, just beautiful on the palate tight and concentrated fruit with a hint of eucalyptus aroma. Very enjoyable indeed. Would be on par with the finest Voyager or Moss Wood offerings.

It is not cheap at $40 Cabernet Blend 2018 – Black Market Deal #37637 so I am not rushing to buy another 6 pack, however I am very pleased with this wine
I admit that despite all my bravado about abstaining from purchases to save up for the EoFY deluge of deals that I think is to come very soon, and in the face of the fact that less than $40 can get you some really exceptional plonk these days, I bought a six of this today. Hope that wasn't too weak or dumb!

I just wanted to get in touch to give you exclusive early access to a very exciting new Barossa mega-deal!

This outstanding family owned producer based in the heart of McLaren Vale has an incredibly rich winemaking history dating back to the 19th century and spanning across five generations!

This is a can't miss for lovers of premium, luxurious Shiraz as this wine has all the bells and whistles and will be delivered to your door in a beautiful wooden box!

(Pre-arrival) Black Market Shiraz 2017 - Barossa Valley, SA
5 Red Star Producer James Halliday Wine Companion

This Shiraz was crafted from carefully selected parcels of old-vine Shiraz in the north of the Barossa Valley. 2017 proved to be an excellent vintage for Shiraz, with cooler temperatures resulting in a long ripening period allowing for greater complexity and flavour to develop in the grapes. This Shiraz screams decadence with its silky, full bodied and plush palate highlighted by deep black and blue fruits that combine with dark chocolate, licorice and spice from the French oak.This wine is drinking well now, especially after decanting, and will continue to evolve and develop over the next two decades.

Cellaring: now to 2040
Down from $80 /btl to $24 in 6 packs
(Due for dispatch from our warehouse next Friday 12/05)
If you'd like to jump on a case or two of these while they're still available just let me know.

Do only certain people receive these?
 
The blurb I got from the email stated in part "From a family owned producer dating back to 1886 and spanning across five generations. ".

Based on this, Seppeltsfield is a likely contender.
Based on their website prices range $25, $70 and $150

I can't find a suitable match, Seppeltsfield is a good winery if it is it.
 
But based in the heart of McLaren Vale?
My email does not mention McLaren Vale. It only mentiones Barossa.

Seppelsfield is in the Barossa (at least the last time I was there it was!).

Hence: 'This Shiraz was crafted from carefully selected parcels of old-vine Shiraz in the north of the Barossa Valley. '

Likely Angove.


Could be. If so, I have no interest.

But this "Capable of 8 years cellaring." is massively inconsistent with Vinomofo's claim that it would cellar until 2040.


UPDATE: It just occured to me that there may be separate emails to different offers that we are talking about or @neozelatino's broker doesn't know the difference between McLaren Vale and the Barossa! Mine is below:

I think you are spot on. And I also just received the general email.. so looks like the brokers could not move the stock so now they are going mainstream.
