Is there a trick to posting in the referral thread? I'm getting a little message saying I haven't got sufficient posting privileges. Maybe I'm too new?

Edit: worked it out, yep too green. Guess I'll just chill here instead and enjoy the wine

Wow, I've never looked at the VM referral thread before... it's fascinating. How would you choose which of the numerous ppl offering a code to go with?

Fairly easily - all of them have expired, so I was looking for another one!

 

[Nanachi]

Very eager for a code tonight if anyone happens to have one =)

Can anyone shed light on the Reschke wines that VM seem to have been flogging constantly for the last 6 months or so? Is the Empyrean Cab Sav 2014 worth the pricetag? I can't manage to find anthing outside VM that substantiates the quality of the wine. A has-been winery dumping old stock or a good buy?

My code for $25 off is 7QSNHQ8 - which should work for new and existing mof_s. Thanks in advance if you use it!

I have recently tried my Empyrean Cab Sav 2010 that I purchased from VM and it was superb. If offered again I’d buy without hesitation. But I haven't tried 2014

I've posted my experience on this one last year as i opened the 2014 for myself, very much enjoyed it, just used a code to buy another 6 pack just then for the VIM offer.

Some others mentioned the 2010 or 2012 was very good as well (for the empyrean).

Presume it’s this one on VM?

Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 – Black Market Deal #43087 - Red Wine

This may very well be the benchmark for Coonawarra cabernet. It’s the flagship of our this producer, and it earns its stripes.

I Bought this a while ago and found a couple of bottles left in the cupboard yesterday.

We had one last night and I thought it was delicious.

So much that I found a code and went back for another six pack just now..

Under $20 delivered.

Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 – Black Market Deal #45566 - Red Wine

Yes, you can read that again. 95pt Halliday rated aged Coonawarra cabernet. This is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. The needle in the haystack. The perfect drop.

Does this have the same scuttlebutt as the RSR? Or genuinely aged?

 

[Dr Reo Symes]

Does this have the same scuttlebutt as the RSR? Or genuinely aged?

I think the RSR is a fuller, stronger taste, although the Bos is also very nice. But I think the scuttlebutt is centred around the CW purchase of the Reschke brand, so encompassing all their labels. I'm not sure what to make of it. I have tried the 2012, 2014, 2015 RSRs and while I defer to the expertise here about the freshness of the corks, they were all good drinking.

It's this.

Surveyor General Shiraz 2018 — Lights Valley

Sourced from a low yielding sing vineyard in the central north-west region of the Barossa Valley, where warm dry conditions and rich red soil provide the backbone to some of the region’s best-known wines. The Surveyor General Shiraz offers generous flavours of black fruit, chocolate and hazelnut. F

No name winery, Sam Kim score, dodgy website. I'm tempted just to try a bottle (and send the rest back if no good), just cause I haven't purchased for a while.

Though we do have a review from the well known master of wine below, he's twisted my arm!

So funny, the 'winery' website is amazing. When you go to 'about' it tells you about Colonel Light and why the Barossa is called the Barossa, and absolutely nothing about the winery!

Yeah, another one from the CW Wines "stable" and their inventive marketeers.

Seems they must have a series of red wine lakes spanning several years that they're just piping out to bottles and then deciding what to label them...
