Geoff Merrill Reserve Shiraz 2016

On sale for half price - $65 down to $32.50 a bottle at Aus Cellar Door.
Discount should load but if not try EOFY50

Wine Companion 92 points.
Matured for 29 months in American and French barrels (80% new). This is a complex wine; the impact of the oak is substantial to say the least, but time has smoothed the fruit and oak into a coherent whole. Will outlive many consumers – myself included. Closure: Screw cap. 14.5% alcohol. AUD$65 (Drink by 2043)

Ken Gargett 96 Points

I've hard this wine before (other vintage) and it was plush and nice.

Free shipping on 12, $10 on 6, $15 on less then 6.
They are down to their last 8 bottles. I really liked it, so grabbed some more. It was equally good on night 2. Enter EOFY50 on last page before buying.

This looks to be the straight cabernet from the range, the winefront reviews is very positive

This is a very good cabernet. It’s warm, well-flavoured, well-structured and persistent. It tastes of violets and blackcurrant, cloves and bay leaves, though running through it there’s a redcurrant-splashed-with-dust element that is most attractive. There’s a lot of tannin here too; it sits as a long, stretched-out frame on which the fruit sits. If it wasn’t for the alcohol warmth, and the slight dip through the mid-palate, I’d be pushing even higher score-wise. - 93+ CM

There's a EOFY code for this one, makes to under $10 a bottle

I bought a second case of the 2019 (shared the first), a friend went for a case of the 2018. The 2018 may outlive the 2019 if you want to keep longer term, 2019 could go a bit flabby if held more than 3-4 years.
Thanks for heads up. I won it at auction and tried it yesterday. Wow, what a fantastic wine. Massive red bursting with fruit and yet manages to balance everything.

Tried to get some more but could not see any listings except for 2015

Edit. It is back on but there reserve price is now higher Shiraz / Syrah 2019 Auction (0005-10743924) | Grays Australia

A couple of LEAS Chardonnay left at BWS Lane Cove for $89.50 each, will come down to $71.60 when paired with Shopback 20% cashback.
 
not related to deals, but just curious as to what glassware everybody uses? do you have universal glasses or do you have specific glassware for your different varietals?

Controversial take - but despite having had fancy hard to clean/easy to break top of the line Riedel and Waterford crystal glasses before, I actually love the weight, rim and general suitability of the Krosno Harmony glasses. Feels good enough to have something expensive in, wide enough bowl for something that needs a lot of oxygen, but also totally fine to put a $12 white alongside vietnamese takeaway with mates without worrying about it.

Yeah, I have some of their Prosecco glasses which I use as general all rounders for all types of sparkling when I have guests over. I have two riedels when it's just me and Sarah.

For reds, I use the Alex Liddy large Bordeaux glasses, the ones which will hold a whole bottle and they have generally been good to clean and not too easy to break
