Hewitson 'Ungrafted'

Another new label from Hewitson, probably the "modern Barossa" style as it weighs in at just 13.5%. Go for it if that's your thing, but it's not for me after the Strawberry Hill Shiraz 2021 didn't rock my boat at a similar a/v. Maybe a "made for mof_" wine.

well, I missed the 7%, but boomed. It's selling in a few places, the RRP of $90 is obviously optimistic, but at $11 a bottle I won't be expecting much...

Plus it has ok reviews from some others than Sam Kim.

I'd use a different word than optimistic...
One reviewer (not in the advert) has it listed as $50 and Qantas wines has it at $50 Buy Hewitson Shiraz Ungrafted 2021 | Qantas Wine
And wine.com.au for $29.99 Hewitson Ungrafted Shiraz 2021
The MyDeal listing (sold via wine.com.au) shows RRP $300 for 6.

I feel compelled to confess that I too coughed up for a six pack of the the Hewitson at $69. I forgot about the CR ticket clip. My wife likes Barossa shiraz, so worth a punt! How do retailers make any profit on deals like this?

It all comes down to their cost price.

I think if you are expecting a traditional Barossa offering (full bodied, black fruits upfront), you might be in for a surprise.

Maybe also indicative of the usual profit margin for some of the Vinomofo offerings.

6 for $69 delivered here using code WEEKEND10 Hewitson Ungrafted Shiraz (6 Bottles)

My order arrived just now. Posted over at my place, copied here.
The a/v is 13.5%.
Popped, poured, swirled and sipped.

This is actually looking quite promising.
Bright fresh crimson/magenta colour, only light/moderate density .
Restrained nose, slightly spicy dark cherry and red plums, no sign of oak (older barrels used).
Palate is fresh and juicy, bright fruit, moderate fine tannin, acid in balance, no hard edges, finishes a little short.

Drink now or short term cellaring, but for about $11-$12 it's a pretty good buy on this quick taste.

But whoever dreamed up the $90 RRP is certainly smoking the good stuff.

Better than the Strawberry Hill Shiraz 2021?

Better than the Strawberry Hill Shiraz 2021?

On first taste from memory of the Strawberry Hill it was a little raw with hard edges and jarring acid. I haven't tried one since, but on first impressions this is much nicer. I'll eventually try them together, but not today.

If you like them big and ripe, It's 15.5%, not the default 14% in the VM listing. Only 50 6-packs available, well 49 after mine.

Any VM codes around to sweeten the deal?
