"spend $399 today and get $40 off using code DEALERSAVE40!"

Hasn't worked for me for about 2 weeks or so.... very annoying! I would be interested to know if there is an alternative...

Back to first principles, that's why I still subscribe to Wine Companion, Wine Orbit etc., it's usually pretty easy to work out if there is a relevant score included in the listing.

Do VM have a policy regards advertised RRP not matching winemaker's?
I've looked but cannot find any reference.

I really love the assertion that it's up to the user to ensure that the [often inaccurate] information meets their requirements. That's a totally brilliant disclaimer for a site that deliberately seeks to stop you finding out what the product is! Mind-bending stuff really... perhaps it's to be expected in this post-truth world

Well, actually they usually make it pretty easy to work out if you have access to the relevant information. Many take me less than 10 minutes, some a little or a lot more difficult, sometimes hindered by the amount of erroneous info in the listing.
On the other hand, if you have a broker they will usually tell you what it is, or at least a good extra clue.

It's interesting that they bother to have such stupid policies that will not stand up to Australian Consumer law when they also have a policy to refund if you don't like it.

It did take me a little longer than the herokuapp but pretty sure
Pinot Noir 2022 – Black Market Deal #43227
is
Children Of The Revolution Pinot Noir 2022
Which means it's a no for me.

My money will be going to Winestar as long as VM continue to play childish games.

The generous return policy of VM is probably the big consolation, return freight charges are prohibitively expensive especially from the far flung reaches of OZ...

Yesterday bought a Haselgrove 2019 GSM (https://www.vinomofo.com/wines/red-wine/gsm-2019-black-market-deal-39446-6ade7c14) not badly priced ($180/12), cheap and cheerful Dangerous Whites at $11.25.btl and McGuigans 2018 Shortlist Riesling at $13.50 ea.
Making use of 2 x $20 credits plus the $40 credit available yesterday.

Finally having the WA Cab picked up Monday so have a couple of monkeys to spend. Once again the fantastic return policy from the Fo comes to the golf course. Fore.

FWIW I had Hewitson The Mad Hatter shiraz yesterday that was purchased at VM and it was ok but a bit of Meh tbh.
Certainly didn't get me to scream for more. YMMV.

Anyone have an idea what wine this is?

Riesling 2022 – Black Market Deal #42248

Mount Barker fruit makes for some great riesling. They always tend to get a wet winter and dry summer that doesn’t get too hot. This leads to slow ripening, ...

ROSENTHAL RICHINGS RIESLING 2022

RICHINGS - Riesling - Rosenthal Wines

Brilliant pale straw-green. Subtle fragrances of lime, and sherbert with a touch of lemon blossom. The linear drive of the palate is balanced by citrus and green apple with a crunchy mineral texture.

I know it's end of year but does anyone else get the sense that Vinomofo is not doing too well and that it's not what it used to be? There seems to be a lot of old stock that is not moving and the variety and quantity of wines is much slimmer than normal.
I know financially they aren't where they hoped they would be but it seems the mojo from the mof_ has been lost?

 

[tgh]

the mojo from the mof_ has been lost

Looks that way.. far too much reliance on hype after the river of old stock ran low…needing a marketing freshen up now
Other retailers are surviving and very sharp operators although I suspect many would kill for the 'fo customer base
Listing provides a short term river of liquidity but some time a profit must ensue or…...
