Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

From searching Wine Companion, the only two 2013 Coonawarra cabs rated 94 by CM I could find were:
- Jim Barry The Veto
- Caillard Reynella Selection
Both are listed as $35 RRP and drink to 2030.
And one of those is indeed from " a household name and makers of headline Clare Valley reds ".

DM Winter Warmers Cabernet Mixed 6 Pack:

$150.00 per bundle of $361.20 RRP.

2 x Sorby Adams Isolde Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
2 x Wills Domain Cuvee d' Elevage Cabernet 2017
2 x Epic Negociants Black Label The Ridge Margaret River Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The Sorby Adams and Wills Domain are often seen in bundles... and Epic seems always heavilly discounted.
Wolf Blass Bonus Black Label Bundle is still better value?

Another Bunlde from DM:

I remember Bay of Fires Pinot being on that site for purchase in the past? Does it sell out quickly or they have removed it?
Anyone know?
 

extended until this week


Not that cheap but close. Some stores price matched VC, some beat them by $1 so I’d say average price was $69.

yes, sorry, mixed up MM and CM prices again, but still impressed at how you managed to have them specially order a bottle in for you to also price-match?

new BoF vintages are released on to Cellar One in October and the pinot noir usually sells out within a few weeks

just checked the website and it seems that the pinot could have been restocked recently - or might be soon - as I don't recall it being listed last month - you could contact them to ask

It’s a hit and miss process, actually more of a miss as most did not agree to order. That specific manager was easy going and we got into conversation about different vintages (he’s a fan of MM). An important thing to remember when requesting to place an order is to do it only AFTER paying for the item in hand because once they log into the system there’s good chance they’ll try to verify the price match...
 
FYI DANS WEBSITE Under wraps doesn’t seem to be showing all the options properly at the moment.

when I go to main website and click on UNDERWRAPS it shows me one Rosé, for example.

But if I click on that rose, and then click on “All Under Wraps Products” in red letters then it has five roses listed (3 in stock)

Yeah, I've found that this link: https://www.danmurphys.com.au/list/under-wraps?i_cid=dskmob:5685:ss-mega-nav doesn't show the full range.

But this one: https://www.danmurphys.com.au/search?searchTerm=under-wraps seems to catch all

Its been playing silly buggers for a while now. I get 42 items when I search Under Wraps (with a space), then click on one of them and follow the Under Wraps (Home -> Under Wraps) link I get 145 items
 
Interesting conversation with the manager at a DM in a high socio-economic area of the Gold Coast today.

I was looking for the Mount Mary that some people have picked up on the cheap lately.

He said it was only on clearance at stores that can’t sell it. Read: lower socioeconomic areas.

He told me he sells “heaps of it” at his store and had personally driven around to pick up about $4k worth from other Gold Coast stores last week because he can sell them (and I suppose the other stores can’t).

But he also said (claimed?) to have drunk one personally last night after buying a dozen direct from MM. He reckons MM is struggling financially and he paid less than buying with his staff discount.

He claimed to have paid <$100/btl direct.

MM website requires an account to see prices and I couldn’t be bothered doing that. but if you’re a MM fan it may be worthwhile.

YMMV.

Here is the current members price (edit: there is no discount when 12 are added to the cart, delivery is extra)

With respect to that manager I don’t think any DM stores did clearance on MM recently, regardless of their location. In fact I was in the Gold Coast last weekend and while my +1 was shopping in Harbour Town I was cleaning the local stores of MM. Some only allowed one bottle but none said no to the price match.

Another anecdote regarding socioeconomics, my local BNE DM which is located in a pretty good area had some dusty MMs on it's top Langton’s shelf. The manager said MM is not popular because most customers who choose to spend > $100 on Aussie Cab Sav usually go for SA or WA wines.
