No idea what the VP is like - a moot point for me as I wasn't offered any on the order form. I grabbed whatever was offered. Refreshing to see reasonable pricing from a small niche boutique winemaker.

Where you, like me, only offered a total of 11 bottles?

What is the waiting list time like for noon?

I contacted them last year and was able to buy a dozen. I'm now in the Reserve Waiting List with an allocation of:
1x rosé
3x Twelve Bells
1x Noon
3x Reserve Shiraz
3x Reserve Cabernet

 

[WrenchHammerMcTool]

For the price of one BP I can get 3 Noon.
Sure it's a different style but the 2016 Cabernet I had a couple of weeks ago was magnificent.

Do you know if average Joe can rock up and purchase on their November opening weekends? Or is that restricted to members/mailing list?

Great price on the 2015 St Hugo Cabernet Sauvignon. Has anyone had it? Seems to get decent reviews. Might be near the end of its drinking window though.

Great price on the 2015 St Hugo Cabernet Sauvignon.

No. Close to the usual discounted price. A great price would be sub $12.

Has anyone had it?

Yes.

Might be near the end of its drinking window though.

No. 2030+

Seems Sip N Save does not deliver interstate. Is this right?

That'd be my guess! I believe they're all independently owned too so stock availability and vintages is highly varied.

e.g. the below at Marion, take 20% off that

Old block for $60 is definitely the cheapest I’ve ever seen

I snagged this, but didn't rate it massively so sent the rest to auction sites.

How do others find old block?, I used to love this wine, but more recent vintages are not as good.

Yeah damn, that's handy for me to be able to see what I missed out on. I cld well have splurged just a bit there depending on the discounts (once they got around to applying them).

Some interesting pinots and mixes there. Oakridge seems prominent. Also wondering how much the discount was on the premium aussie reds like the Jack Mann and Michael

it was one of the better Carpe Diems imo:

Do you know if average Joe can rock up and purchase on their November opening weekends? Or is that restricted to members/mailing list?

It is open to everyone

 

[Steady]

It is open to everyone

I think it was limited to two bottles when I went @Buzzard do you recall?

Yes you can. You just have to be prepared to wait in line. I assume you have the 6 opening times.

I think it was limited to two bottles when I went @Buzzard do you recall?

I know there was a limit but I don't remember what that limit was.

What is the waiting list time like for noon?

I was at David's house some years ago and he told me he had a mailing list, a waiting list and a waiting list to get on to the waiting list. He said he wasn't going to start a fourth list. I'm just not sure how serious he was.
I guess I was lucky to be put straight onto the waiting list but it's a story for another time as to how I got invited to his house.
