    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    Not sure retailers need to offer any deals given volumes have been strong for a long time. This EOFY might not be a bonanza at all.

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    Good, well made very over priced RRP products. I like them both and have them both but don't buy them any more. Particularly post TWE Grange.

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    Share pricing often precedes results. I'm not sure about their P&L results but there have been a lot of Penfolds package initiatives in the last 6 months that I've never seen before. I've also been getting constand sake emails for TWE's other labels - again nothing worth getting excited about

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    Nice match of over priced boots with over priced wine. Both good quality Aussie icons but 50% discount is required just to bring them to reality rather than bargain territiory. TWE obviously feeling the China tax pain and trying hard not to erode the RRP of their Penfolds flagship. I get calls...

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    I don't know this wine but the second label Bordeaux's generally aren't great from my experience. There are some lovely Bordeaux wines but I think with bordeaux you get what you pay for and you always pay too much.

    I don't buy MR Shiraz at all so CS wouldn't be my cuppa tea. There is too much better shiraz (for my tastes) elsewhere. MR Cabinet on the other hand... Horses for courses.

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    Obviously taste's vary but there seem quite disparate views on here from those that have tried it. I got fruit but not to the extend of prune or anything jammy. I got a drying tannan element on the back pallet which I expected. It seemed to me to be a Signature but not 100% up to normal...

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    I tried one of the "Signatures" and thought it was good, particularly for the price. Not as big as I expected but it had good fruit. I expected it to be a touch early fro my liking and it was. The tannins will give it a bit of staying power. I think it is the genuine article but they have...

    I was told by someone at GWD that they believe it to be The Signature. This is a very good wine although I haven't had the 2016. Put it down for a while - I'll be starting to drink these in 5 years.

    Extract from response from Shopback when I emailed re First Choice credit for $25 when cap was stated to be $30. "...Upon checking with the relevant team, we are working really hard with First Choice Liquor regarding this error due to a technical glitch with our partner’s systems. Please allow...

    Sparkling (Shiraz or Red) Recommendations?

    Try the Rutherglen region. Anderson are one of my gotos.

    For $20 it's OK. For $40 it's mediocre. Sorry don't have TN's. Had it some time back when on special. Nothing wrong with it but didn't think it worth buying more.

    At CD pricing Rockfords BP and Rifle Range are bloody good wines IMO.

    I had a 2018 recently. Not bad for $19 which is what I paid from Langton's auction.

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    I've see a lot of comments about wine quality (obviously subjective) for wine probably drunk too early. Your comment was exactly my first response reading a couple of the comments on this one. Some wines do benefit more than others from bottle age. Something like the Sorby Adams (and...

    Just on the Max/389 deal, I got the same email and wasn't interested. I haven't had the Max's Chardy but the reds are just average wines at best to my taste so relative price isn't relevant for me. If you have liked the Max's then maybe the pricing is OK but tread carefully if you haven't...

    Are you talking about the current release? I don't recall $10. Had I seen it I would have jumped at it.

    Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

    I am as up with dissing Penfolds since TWE took over as anyone and their RRP pricing has been way over the top for a long time but, seriously, the Bin 389 is a very good wine. You may be able to find a better wine for $60 to drink tonight but the 389 has great staying power and will be very...

    Yeh, if they say "up to 15%" they have no exposure. If it tracks but Dan's doesn't pay them they won't pay up anyway. Even if it does track and ends up being approved it takes a long time before you can withdraw the cash. You can't rely on the shopback rebate to make the deal worthwhile...
