I have had a bit of Trofeo at cellar door & in their restaurant. Was last there a month ago so the wines would have been current vintage (don't have my notes here). The Pinot at around $20 in that link is worthwhile. It's easy drinking clean wine. There aren't many (any?) really good RRP $20...

I'd take as many Art Series Chardonnay as I could get for $60. It's a great wine. $20 is outrageous.

I used to buy a lot of Penfolds for the cellar up to 10 years ago. I've barely bought any for years now. TWE pricing in the last decade has been outrageous and their attitude that they could charge what they want because China will take what they send is biting them now and deservedly so...

The fact that a wine "critic" have it 95 and a retailer with a vested interest in selling it gave it 93 says a lot about Australian wine scoring by the the professionals.

Given the CB is on the net of GST amount you need to add 10% - the GST inclusive price should be $110

Yes it did - assuming that's what the wine I bought today was.

I've had a lot of trouble with Dan's tracking with Shopback - the last 3 or 4 from memory.

I've given up on Shopback. I don't trust them. It's business lacking in integrity. I've had too many purchases not track and then be denied when I lodge a claim. In spite of telling them not to send me the same do's and don't that I am aware of and have followed they always tell me why a...

I wouldn't trust the shopback credit to go through. The last few times I have lodged a claim they have told me the merchant (Dan Murphy's) has deemed the transaction ineligible. The transaction shows as clicked through on shopback and it s clearly eligible wine on the invoice. Shopback don't...

I opened a WB Grey Label tonight - very happy with it. Drinking well with a good 5 years cellar potential easily. Nice balance. Probably worth the RRP for a change let alone the actual cost. This is better than a quaffer IMO. Will put the other 5 + the Black Label away for a while. Will try...

The unreserved autions are OK provided you do your research o n the wine/vintage. Their reserve auctions would be fine but for the on costs.

Finally I can say "told you so" to my wife who has been at me for years about needing 1200+ bottles in the cellar! Given where the world is at I won't be buying any more while for a while. We are likely headed for a recession if not depression. I have clients who's businesses won't recover...

Getting SMS's which I ignore and emails which I can't click through because their system can't talk to bigpond.

The payment at the end of the auction is automatic as far as I know. You could set up another account with a second card payment but probably not worth it.

I went this morning on my way home with my wife. Nothing to get excited about. We both tried a few wines and didn't buy anything

You can get some good pricing. I've brought Bindi on these auctions in the past. The range is great but over priced. It's generally reasonable on the unreserved auctions. Just be careful of the buyers premium and then GST on the buyers premium which adds 16.5% to the hammer price. It's...

Haven't had one for quite a while but my recollection was that it was a decent quaffer. No more or less than that. Reasonable/good value for money at normal retail so half price would be worth a crack. Nick's review is pretty accurate...

I'm having a blue with Shopback at the moment about Dan Murphy's purchases not tracking and they are hopeless. Frankly I think it's a business lacking integrity. I initially had problems with Cashrewards when I first signed but recent transaction have tracked correctly.

My experience with Shopback is the opposite. I'm still waiting for them to track orders I have logged as claims AND emailed them about after no response. Their responses to emails have been slow . Not only that they email me the same list of possible reasons for an order not tracking even...

Thanks chonka & vyralmonkey, looks like it's not on sale in Melb. Cheers
