This was $15 per bottle Vinmofo deal #34087 in April 2020. Keep an eye out as it is a regular black market deal.Hi All has anyone here had Shadowfax Macedon Ranges Chardonnay?

2020 Frost Dodger Riesling ($28) has just been rated 96pts by Gary Walsh on Winefront
Saw 2013 Sensi Barolo for $30 at Vintage Cellars in Melbourne, down from $95 apparently. Forgot to take a screenshot
Hi Cruiser, following my discussions with VC store manager, she said that the WB Platinum is not a deleted line, and therefore can be reordered.
If the barcode is blank on the ticket or 'faded' then it is a deleted line.
The VC store manager basically said, she made a reorder as the barcode wasn't blanked out on the ticket and it came through.
I noticed my ebay DM orders are comg via auspost with redirect available, finding most are doing this as per contactless delivery. Might be worth setting up a parcel collect in the allowed state and redirecting (pretty sure email, phone need to match at ebay and aus post accounts to allow redirect too)
Hi guys I am trying to find a special wine for my fathers 70th this year. This is not a man who is lacking in good quality wine.
Any recommendations or things outside the box - was trying to find a 1950 Para port - but that is almost impossible - with only 100 ml options for lots of money (rip-off).
was thinking maybe the Bass Philips premium Pinot Noir. has anyone had this? is it worth it?
Any other tips?
Thanks.
Does anybody have any feedback on the Barossa Old Vine Company Shiraz 2014? This is a big markdown from the rrp although I am wondering if the rrp is fanciful??

Never tried it.
System says there are over 70 bottles at Ascot Vale and just 6 bottles at Glen Waverley if anyone is nearby and wants to try c+c instead of delivery? Doesn't appear to be stock anywhere else (VIC).

A few more VC deals to add.
2012 Wynns V&A lane shiraz $19.99. I bought all they had.
2014 WB Plat $59.99 - was still a lot left at paddington
2016 Deep Woods Single Vineyard Cabernet Malbec - $10 best deal of the lot in my opinion.
some burgundys
a 2009 1er cru vosne romanee (drank saturday night forgot the producer- not one I knew) $80 I wish they had more.
2014 Leroy Bourgogne Blanc $60. Always wanted to try Leroy so this was a good chance.

has anyone had luck with the price match at first choice? I am trying to get the Sensi Barolo matched - but because it doesn't say it is available on the website, they are being dodgy.@YosemiteP - do you have a copy of your receipt? Will see if my local VC will price match - Deep Woods unbelievable value at that price!
its says its available at a couple of my local VC stores (Melbourne). Just set it to that store and then show them (or someone else if they are not playing ball)has anyone had luck with the price match at first choice? I am trying to get the Sensi Barolo matched - but because it doesn't say it is available on the website, they are being dodgy.
I have not re-ordered any of these - BUT - I have re-ordered 2 doz WB BL - price I was quoted yesterday was $49.99 - at this price I do not care what years can be provided - I just hope some part of the order will be supplied.so who's asked to reorder Standish, Mount Mary, Lustau Pedro Ximenez San Emilio, Handpicked Regional Selections Pinot Noir 2018, JM Seleque Solessence 7 Villages, Octavius?................and has anyone tried price-matching at Dan's?

there are still deliveries via Endeavour, so need to call Dan's after placing order to request AusPost - as the (parcel collect) delivery address is registered to your MyPost account, redirection via the AusPost website should always be possible, even with a different email address to your eBay or Dan's account

If you choose the "Balaclava" store, it's available there at $30 onlinehas anyone had luck with the price match at first choice? I am trying to get the Sensi Barolo matched - but because it doesn't say it is available on the website, they are being dodgy.
Tried Glen but not available - it seems only for delivery only.
Think I worked it out. I would say it is the 2018 GIBSON "THE DIRTMAN" SHIRAZ. Ive always found the Gibson very good wines, but I was hoping this one might have been the Ironscraper 2018... waiting for it to drop somewhere.
2018 Dirtman seems to be getting some very good feedback though.
No idea. Just saw the offer, and on vivino it’s rated pretty highly.Is Sensi Barolo that good? Working out if worth hunting down
DM are having a EOFY "Sale". Only one that sparked my interest that I haven't seen before was the 2015 Waverley Estate Stubborn Ox Shiraz.
6 for $99 (usually $35 pb at DM).
Only thing I can seem to find for this is a high Vivino rating (4.2), but given there are only 13 reviews I put little faith in that.
Has anyone by chance tried this/other Waverley Estate Wines?
