I'm still enjoying the six-pack I received a few weeks back, a very solid drop, chewy and dense, should probably lay some down but it's just too drinkable! Bit disturbing to hear about batch variation though...It seems to be a 'made for the fo' wine.
Yep, me too. ETA this week.I just got an email to notify of shipment.
I decided to open up my last 2018 GMS and I reckon it gives The Blend a good run for almost half the money.It's a good drop but there's definitely batch variation. My first 6 bottles were excellent. Second order I returned after trying a bottle.
Did you find the GMS to be much lighter? I only had The Blend before.I decided to open up my last 2018 GMS and I reckon it gives The Blend a good run for almost half the money.
Couldn’t agree more. I bought The Blend and returned it as I thought the GSM was better. Each to their own I guessI decided to open up my last 2018 GMS and I reckon it gives The Blend a good run for almost half the money.
Perhaps a little bit lighter, mostly I think more flavoursome and less tannic. The one I had left is 2 years older though.Did you find the GMS to be much lighter? I only had The Blend before.

Mine arrived todayAnybody had their Mesach 3pack ship yet? My order status is still stuck on 'processing'.
Other orders from the sale including the bottle of Dom have arrived safely in my cellar.
Yep, that is the Gemtree.
I've had it before and I wouldn't say it is the best example of a Tempranillo, but I do like the winery's bio-dynamic methods and the absence of preservatives.
At that price it makes for a good quaffer.
Yes. Tonight. Pretty much every wine I drink.

How did you go? Did you crack a bottle yet?I guess I’ll let you know….
I did. Was tempted to donate the other 5 to the Black Market club for the price but decided to cellar as I think it will be better in a few years. Very fruity and not as bold as I usually like. I must say I have been impressed with the 2018 Pirathon Shiraz though. Just bought another dozen. Much better value IMO.How did you go? Did you crack a bottle yet?
