Dan Murphy's and Other Wine Deals

[Bill Bosworth]

I used my bunch50 to get the '14 WB black for $20. Handy price. Was tossing up between that or the '18 Wynns Glengyle CS for $19.

The wife purchased a bottle of Linderman's St George CS 2021 for $25 with her BUD25 coupon taking advantage of her $25 credit at CellarDoor.
Hard to find any worthwhile wine for these coupons as the qualified selection is a bit limited.

This looks not a bad deal?
Any thoughts?
Mount Mary lure me in... Not sure about voyager.

Halliday 93 on the Voyager: herbal/minty and a little unripe. I wouldn't take that lure.

Thanks!
Yes that review and James Suckling (91) for VE 2016 is not that great.
Interestingly for 2017 vintage, Halliday gives 96.

I recently bought 2017 Voyager CS sixer from Qantas wines and it was simply undrinkable. I did open 2 bottles thinking maybe I came across a damaged bottle. Used to love this wine, won't come near it now.

If you happen to have spare Qantas points, you could do a lot worse than buying this on their points sale for 24k points. Or $50 Qantas wine voucher will take it down to 21.5k points

I don’t really like straight Grenache but as a blend, it is a different proposition. I had it last night. Terrific drop for something a bit different.

Here is a review by Huon Hooke that describes it a lot better than I possibly could.

Thanks for the heads up on this one - opened one tonight and it’s a terrific drop as you said it would be! I was hoping the offer was still on to grab another 6 but sadly ended

Saw this on the socials. This

Mystery Big Barossa Shiraz 2020

This mystery offers berry fruit aromas. Flavours of ripe berry fruit flavours overlay spicy oak characters which support and add structure to the wine. The aromatic blackberry and blueberry fruits carry to the palate which is opulent and a classic representation of the region.

Depends if you value the points and voucher or not. Also, can you vouch for this one becoming a mystery ?

Carpe Diem is live

 

[olympicwiz]

I grabbed a bottle WIRRA WIRRA Vintage Bell Cabernet Sauvignon, McLaren Vale 2017 for $32 and
3x CLARENDON HILLS Kangarilla Vineyard Old Vine Grenache, McLaren Vale 2005 for $12 to try (in addition to some Misha and Mesh Riesling)
Robert Parker raved about it and even tough he said it is best consumed during its first decade of life - I thought I'd roll the dice on this one.

 

[Tindersinder]

I grabbed some 2020 Turkey Flat that Halliday scored at 98 for $30 and some TarraWarra Reserve Pinot. Thanks @1erCru

 

[Bill Bosworth]

Thanks. A sneaky Wed carpe sale by Langtons.

I grabbed some of the Clarendon grenache for fun, a chris ringland for a laugh, a Turkey flat and a meshach for $75.

 

[Lupin]

Hi all. Finally made it in time for my first carpe diem purchase. Appreciate the heads up.
I think clarendon drinking windows seem to be on the longer side so I grabbed a dozen. Also grabbed some mcrae wood and some shaw smith.
