Seems to be Stonehaven-limited-vineyard-release-wrattonbully-shiraz-2021

About $11 /bottle (12 pack) after 20% code.

Anyone tried?

Bought this in July 2024, must have been heaps of it made. Decent wine at the price, but I didn't go back for more. The Wine Companion review is a little over-exuberant.

Quite a few 25 year old Clarendon Hills in there for $45/btl - wonder what the history is on those ones.

Thanks, I might avoid then as I don't want to be stuck with dozen I'm not that into

Anybody got a clue on this one?

$150 to $35 makes me think it's one of the fake RRP ones..

Yeah, it’s fake RRP like most of the Hewitson wines, but I have had this one before and it was nice and probably worth $50 or so when comparing to other wines.

Thanks, added a couple to the order. Average bottle price is $22 with a mix of the Strawberry Hills, Jim Brand Pursuit and Blackwell with a coupld of Orange wildcards thrown in.

Thanks for sharing. Keen.

Was $30 shipping for me (not sure if I bought more or less), but you can do a bank transfer for no charge.

I recently opened a '23 Flaxman Valley from Callum. To me, it was right up there with the best wines I tried - obviously young, but so much going on and developing over the evening. As always YMMV.

I’ve bought it a couple of times for as low as $9-$10 a bottle. Decent for the price point and if you are happy for a quaffer at that price I think it’s a good option. I’d take the Dans 12 for price of 6 error Woodcutters Shiraz before this

I ordered 6 bottles to the ACT. Maybe shipping varies slightly based on location. I missed the bank transfer option (doh!) - I just clicked on the "pay securely" link.

The woodcutters didn't do the 12 / 6 for me even though stock is available. Grabbed the Claymore instead..
Leaning towards the Leconfield Manor House Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 (deal no 1) as a single bottles to go with the Blackwell.

Does anyone know the best way to handle Google shopping results bringing up a price for DM that when you click on is not honoured on the DM website. Live chat? Anyone else experienced this?

I'm sick to death of Dan's results showing up in a search, quoting a price only to find out of stock when following up. Not an ad but click bait, false pretences, business model etc
Not helped by the enshittification of Google

It happens all the time (and drives me nuts). Here is today’s example based on a search for Glaetzer BIshop. Random good price of $24.21 as a sponsored result. But alas when you click through the price is higher.

I have received an email from Agricola (Callum Powell - son of Dave Powell) with the following offer

There are up to 4 bottles of each wine available, with a maximum order of 12 bottles in total. Each of these wines are $62 a bottle this year.

The wines have experienced a 14-to-15-month élevage largely in seasoned oak. 25% of this year’s Flaxman Valley shiraz has been matured in a Nomblot concrete egg to maintain the purity and finesse that these high-country vines have to offer.

2024 Helen has been made in memory of my grandmother Helen Powell and the artwork is her painting “Summer Vines”, 1994. She had an inspiring creative spirit, and I hope to carry this on for her. The wine is a blend of Naimanya from Flaxman Valley, Eden Valley and Adrian Hoffmann’s Limit Lodge in Ebenezer, Barossa Valley.

If any of these four wines are of interest, please respond to me with what you would like and where you might want these to be delivered. I will then send you an invoice for payment and get them on their way to you.

2024 Flaxman Valley

Naimanya • Burley 'Hill' • Home 100+ year ‘Old Vines’

13.3% alcohol • 3,513 bottles produced.



2024 K’ Sands

Asbroek ‘Ancient’ circa 1864 vines • Asbroek 50+ year ‘Old Vines’

Thanks for this! Got a couple of each on their way!

Trifecta on these being about the WB Black - thanks heaps for the heads up.

I found three specific wines that were being tracked fine but had a minor issue with their BWS url and image that prevented them from displaying in the table. Should be fixed now (and for any similar cases going forward) and you'll see the expected results for:

• Wolf Blass Black Label Cabernet Shiraz Malbec... 2021 ($65 or $65.50 at a bunch of stores)
• Infamous Dodger Fiano 2020 ($8.50 at a store or two in Melbourne, Sydney, Townsville, Brisbane, Perth)
• Voyager Estate Chardonnay 2020 (not currently stocked).

Please don't hesitate to reach out via message if you see anything else amiss.

New update with spirits looks fantastic, thank you. Is there currently an issue with the site though? Saying it hasn't updated since June 29 for me.

Hey, sorry about that.

Unfortunately our hosting provider had a major incident with cooling system failures at one of their data centres last week. While most services were restored quickly, the server running these checks was unfortunately one of the few that suffered hardware damage and couldn't be recovered.

I've been working through migrating everything to a fresh server and this one is on the list. Was hoping to get to it before the next bws cashback deal / anyone here noticed . I've triggered a refresh tonight and the automatic checks will be back up and running shortly!
