Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

Just got back from Langton's Warehouse Sale in outer Melbourne (Hoppers Crossing). Price list for those interested in photos.

I grabbed St Hallett Old Block from 2019 at $60 (a challenging year for Barossa so not expecting too much). They also had some last chance $10 bottles that offered some value.

Overall the prices weren't as sharp as previously, and not much for me personally.

There were lots of people wheeling out overflowing trolleys, so horses for courses!

Staff friendly.

I had a bottle in my trolley, then tried it at the tasting table. Was a bit underwhelming for the money so decided not to buy. Should have bought some Moss Wood, so much stock, but pricing wasn't too sharp.

Got a six pack of 2019 Noon Reserve Shiraz and 2019 St Hallett Old Block, not an amazing vintage admittedly but birthyear for my twins. The Noon won't last long, but am hoping the Old Block will last another 12-15 years. Got a six pack of Leconfield Cabernet for everyday drinking.

I've had some fantastic 20+ year old Noons so I would be surprised if it wasn't still good in another 12-15 alongside the Old Block.

Lucky they weren’t born in 2018 or you would have a real buying problem!

I also tried the Astralis and was a little underwhelmed relative to other vintages, albeit 9:15am.

Let us know your thoughts on The Noon.
 
I've been on Noon's mailing list since 2000 I think - unlike Wendouree they kept my newsletter coming even though I didn't order for a few years. Some of the best value wine coming out of McLaren Vale, I think - even at the inflated price I paid today. I actually bought a sixpack to put into storage, but couldn't resist buying a couple of bottles to drink soon - will keep you guys posted.
 
Still happy with the latest Dozen Deals 'Mega Mystery Reds Dozen including 98pt Coonawarra Cabernet'. For $70 including postage (some codes can be reused ;)) The 98 point seems to be the Thompson Steer 2020 but I've had 3 of these in a previous case.

Asked the rep on Ozbargain what this was when it was posted there and it's Stonefish reserve Chardonnay 2024. Couldn't find much info on it so didn't take the risk.

Update -
Did end up buying, deal still available as well. Winemaker is Bruce Jukes, he runs Domaine Naturaliste, and does very well there. Grapes are from the Treeton sub-region of Margaret River.
Definitely value for money here, a modern take on chardonnay with less of that buttery feel.
Have been asked to buy another by the wife.
