Wendouree allocations and general discussion

[Bart02]

Just received my allocation,I am red stripe,(5 years)Adelaide
billed cc on 11th August received 16th August
ordered 4 Shiraz, 4 cab malbec, 2 Shiraz Malbec 2 Shiraz Mataro and 2 muscat
Recieved all except one shiraz and one Cab Malbec. Pretty happy in this lean year!
advice to others, always order a mix, never just one variety,(esp if Shiraz)
I have received Shiraz, every year I don’t order full allocation!(only missed once when ordered 6)
You must order every year or you’ll be taken off! Not sure how they decide to up your rating,just happy to get what I’ve got so far. I have a theory that throwing in a Muscat every now and then can really help!! Good luck to everyone else ,and may the wendouree wine gods smile down nicely on you
Looking forward to next year already!

Only one I can see so far is this one:

Wendouree Cabernet Malbec 2019 | The Wine Front

www.winefront.com.au

Always good to note the suggetsed drinking window. For this one it's from 2026 to 2039+. Fairly typical of most Wendouree wines. I usually don't open mine for at least 10 years.

Red crayon, VIC, 7th year on list and got everything I asked for which was effectively two of everything! Happy days in comparison last year and prior year were both slim pickings…

Did you get the actual wines, or just get your credit card hit?

Ah yes, my card was charged the exact maximum cost I expected inclusive of delivery charges. I haven’t received them yet

Red crayon in Melbourne 4th year here. My credit card got charged today for approximately 12 bottles. I ordered 6 of everything except Malbec and Muscat only 4 and 2 respectively. So look like I got 2/5 of my wish list

Red crayon in Sydney, charged today just a little over one grand , I ordered 6 of everything including muscat, probably getting just half or maybe less for some

Mine turned up during the week, I got all of the wine I order but don’t really want and half of the wine I order and actually want

I have had a good run until now getting everything I ordered so I’m happy. I suspect next year will be worse….
