Yes I saw RRP is around $70 at the time. DM is selling at $120, so VM’s quoted is not too bad.The RRP at the time was around $70 I believe.
Typical misleading information from VM, which is why I haven't been buying from them.
Granted it's aged, but still.
Wine-Searcher has some reviews, CellarTracker has 20+ reviews. Plenty of feedback on the wine
Yes pretty good review on CellarTracker.
Will report once i tried it.
#1 Looks like the Schubert Estate Goose-Yard Block ShirazJust received an email
1. Black Market 2015 "Block 2" Shiraz - Barossa Valley, SA
From the outstanding 9/10 rated 2015 vintage, fruit for this Shiraz was hand-picked from a single block, basket-pressed and set to barrel for 20 months. Deep and inky, expressing vivid dark berry fruits along with chocolate and liquorice, all held together by cedar notes and structural tannins from its time in premium French oak. This is serious Barossa Shiraz and is unapologetically bold as it leaps from the glass. This beauty is built to age for decades and will certainly reward those patient enough to do so.
Oak treatment: 20 months in 225-litre French oak barriques, 66% new, 34% two-year old
Alcohol: 15%
Cellaring: Decant to drink now until 2040
2. Black Market 2016 "Block 4" Shiraz - Barossa Valley, SA
(Shiraz 97%, Viognier 3%)
Black Market 2016 Block 4 Shiraz
96 points - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
96 points - Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot
96 points - James Halliday, James Halliday Wine Companion
A touch of Viognier is the Northern Rhône recipe for greatness. It's a careful process and minimal co-fermenting of the white grape amplifies the colour and aromatics of the red. Every aspect of this crafting is hands-on, from the harvest and wild yeast fermentation all the way through to the basket pressing. Only then can this delicious drop get a rest, seeing 20 months in seasoned French oak. The nose has a touch of floral character (thanks to the Viognier), with deep Shiraz fruit powering through accompanied by herbal notes, chocolate, liquorice and leather.
Oak treatment: 20 months in 225-litre old French oak barriques
Alcohol: 15%
Cellaring: Decant to drink now until 2041
RRP: $100 per bottle
Vinomofo price: $49.90 per bottle
Dealer discount today: $39.90 per bottle in six-packs!
#2 is the Schubert Lone Goose

Me no understand. Current DM price for 2011 is $120.The RRP at the time was around $70 I believe.
Typical misleading information from VM, which is why I haven't been buying from them.

Is your point that RRP of current vintage is $70? Or back when 2011 was released?

Back when it was 2011.
VM do this regularly, they'll quote the RRP as what the current vintage sells instead of the original RRP when it was released.

I see. I do find it more useful to know a current retail full price than an 11yo rrp, but they defo shouldn't call the current price an rrp if it's not...

I bought some 2002 recently, at 2002 the wine RRP was $40
I paid $50, currently that wine RRP is $150 which is what VM markets it's RRP at.
You'll find plenty of vintage wines don't even get current value of current vintages via auctions.
Prices have really hiked across the board, so it's frustrating.
I understand the marketing, but it's misleading in some ways.

I liked it a lot. Medium body, very balanced. Although I wouldn’t pay $75 given the current discount we are seeing, at $22.5 even $27.5 it is a no brainer to me.

Was close to that price previously, although stacking some EBay codes/discounted gift cards meant it was around $22 a bottle for me.

I see a few wines I've been holding off on, and their availability on their eBay store

Last 20% off for VM on eBay was early December 2021 I think, I've bought nothing from them since 14 December.

It's been a while for me too, nothing has been of interest at the prices.
