No, but I have a 6-pack on the way using the $18 code on Wednesday. I've had 1-2 vintages of the cheaper Old Dog Shiraz some years back, never went back for quantity though.Price Drop: Shiraz 2021 - New Year Clearance #55886 - Red Wine
Weighty, plush and concentrated as all get out, you absolutely can't go wrong with this Barossa shiraz. Although we have to keep the name a secret we will say this... don't fear this wine (You'll love that pun when it arrives at your door).www.vinomofo.com
Anyone had experience with this before? Specs look good.
I got the same email, any idea what the 2016 is going for?

4.0 Vivino[/td]
RRP $50/btl down to [Black Market Price] in a 6-pack
One of the best and most popular drops to come through from Haselgrove, from one of their best vintages! This delicious drop is pure silk on the palate, with ripe red fruits and a touch of vanilla all perfectly intertwined and balanced. This is a huge deal, and definitely one to jump on while it's here!

ONLY 9 CASES

95 Points - Halliday Wine Companion[/td]
The build of structural focus across this estate's reds is exceptional. The tannins-dusty, pliant and expansive-are impeccably hewn. Plum, cherry... the usual stuff, melded to a lift of orange rind and dried herb Amaro. The bitter pucker on the finish is appetising and raffishly southern Italian.
4.1 Vivino (all vintages)
RRP $45/btl down to [Black Market Price] in a 6-pack
McLaren Vale is perfect for growing Primitivo. The hot days and cool nights are very similar to the grape's ancestral home in Puglia, Italy. 2015 was a sensational vintage for the region, and this drop has done beautifully from it. Ripe, rich and rounded with plenty of dried fruits and baking spices. Delicious!

4.2 Vivino
Gold Medal - Wine Showcase Magazine
RRP $120/btl down to [Black Market Price] in a 6-pack
The Ambassador is one of their Haselgrove's premium wines and is from the highest tier of their range which, in their words, "is made for longevity and will always be wholly and solely focused on delivering luxury in a bottle."
Sourced from old, low-yielding McLaren Vale vines, the wine spends 18 months maturing in a combination of new and seasoned French oak hogsheads. Intense aromas of blackberry and cherry are layered with anise, cedar and spice are followed by densely concentrated ripe black fruits, baking spices, fennel and integrated oak on the palate. This wine is busting at the seams, but chewy tannins do well to hold everything together.

[td]
96 Points - Halliday Wine CompanionA special deal put aside exclusively for us dealers, this is truly top shelf Mclaren Vale Shiraz. Perfect balance between high quality fruit and expert use of French oak leads to an expressive palate showcasing blackberries, plums, cedar and dark chocolate. This structured Shiraz is full of intensity and power now and will really continue to improve with time in the cellar if you have the patience![/td]
'Best barrels from the best parcels.' We step straight into wow territory here. It has too much of everything but it works. Musk, plum, cedar wood, wood smoke and violets. A creaminess to the texture. It carries too much oak but it still feels succulent and fresh. Tannin marshals its way through the back half of the wine in commanding style. This wine speaks like an authority on the subject of McLaren Vale shiraz.

Switch - $19.99/btl in a 6pkI got the same email, any idea what the 2016 is going for?
I think 2015 is getting too old for Primitivo anyway. I don't think it was meant to be aged.Switch - $19.99/btl in a 6pk
Prim - Sold out
The Ambassador Shiraz - $39.99/btl in a 6pk
Cruth - $59.99/btl in a 6pk (I also have the 2019 vintage for the same price)
I have Ambassador 2014 $30 long times ago, it was good value. I think $40 for a 9 years old Ambassador is still worth.
