Wendouree allocations and general discussion

[darellk]

Cellar door prices hey

with a bit of freight loaded in of course

 

[Steady]

Card hit this afternoon for what I assume will be a 6 pack - Red crayon buying since '13 vintage, order 18 every year

 

[Hewitt]

If you get 6 Shiraz and 6 in total of (Cab Sav and/or Cab Malbec) that’s exactly that order . $44 for shipping and insurance.

I just got a $100 credit from Wendouree today! So I’m in the $854 club ! Guessing 6 Shiraz and 6 Cab Sav/Cab Malbec …. Guess I will soon find out

I am very similar to you in terms of how long I have been buying since and volume, stepped it up a bit in recent years - but in SA, my order arrived today, 3 Shiraz and 3 Cab Malbec

CC hit for $854. - same as lot of other folks here. Received 6x Cab Malbec and, from my basic maths, I hope a sixer of Shiraz is en route. 6th year, Sydney, red crayon.

6x Cab Malbec and 6x Shiraz appeared. Also charged $854.

Wines arrived today. 6 Shiraz and 6 Cab Malbec

 

[Hewitt]

Got the same today.

Those were my top two picks of this years allocation, so I’m very happy.

Now we wait to do it all over again next year.

This is my 5th year asked for a mixed 6
Got hit for $147 so guessing two wines.

I know I will never get everything I order. I just order 6 of everything but the dessert and hope for the best.

This year 12, last year 6, year before 12 , etc.

Glad you got something.

1st year here...nothing....will have another go next year

Green Vic. Looks like 2 Cab Malbec hit today. So they are still processing.

Not true. Loyalty is rewarded. In time you can definitely expect a case of everything and even much more.

What's the usual spread of order processing? This year was my first order submission and no credit card bill yet, not sure if that means I have missed out completely or need to stay patient.

'Spread of order processing'? Not sure what you mean my this. But as has been well documented in this thread, orders are often processed by state. I received a case of everything, sans dessert wine, at a NSW address several weeks ago.

I'm in the same boat, 3 years on the list and first year ordering, in Vic, no cc hit yet so I am assuming I'll get nothing this year. When I did call for an update a couple of weeks ago I was asked for my surname and address, so like Dr Ralph said, state and list tenure (crayon color etc.) appear to be the factors, with perhaps state priority being alternated each year....but that is my guess only.

Thanks - that’s what I meant.

I'm in vic, 4th year green crayon. No hits on the ccard either.

I'm with you. 5th year for me. Nothing this year. Maybe next year... maybe I need to hit 10 years. Who knows. Will keep trying next year. In the meantime I will spend elsewhere to keep the cellar stocked.

Last week card got hit, a 3 pack on the way by the looks! Gather they are Cab Malbec.. I’m happy.. missed out on the 2020’s but all good.
