I had a crack. $160 + ~20k points
Whilst not a mixed dozen I'd personally put together down at the local, for what I paid don't think it's too bad (although tbh never heard of some!)
Will quaff some and prob donate some to school fundraiser.

I bought it a couple of weeks ago, not bad for what ended up coming in it I though.

I churn wine for points and right now you can get Coonwarra Heirloom for $350 a case with 15k bonus points. (Minus 10% PCP discount, minus $50 voucher). I buy alot and generally store most but I took 5 cases of this wine we have now nicknamed the syrup.

At 14.5% (claimed, i think its much higher) i took a bottle to drink with my dad. The first thing i noticed is how thick it is much like a syrup or prune juice. Before the bottle was over he was falling asleep. We drink alot of wine but this wine knocked him right over.

Fast forward a week i took 2 bottles to an italian restaurant and this wine knocked my brother out to the point he asked me to stop 3 times on the way home as he was dizzy.

In the end 75000 points + about 3600 points in 3 to 1 $ spend and $1200 this is one of the strongest and best wines ive bought. Has anyone else tried this beauty?

I prefer their Shiraz but Heirloom are very well regarded and can be bought very reasonably if you know how.

How?

How?

Have seen on Winedirect and Wine Collective regularly as both labeled and mystery wines (but easy to identify) plus I think I’ve seen on Langtons recently.

Anyone making use of the current point points per case offers?

I personally placed an order totalling over 80,000 points in order to maintain and re-qualify for PCP in the coming year. Cost-wise worked out markedly less than applying for sign-up credit card bonus

Cost wise in actual dollar outlay?

how???

4 doz with 20k points each?
that's still ~5hunj a doz, so 2g's total.

or are you taking into account the cost benefits of PCP? Not that that would tip the difference.

1 credit card, just a single credit card you'll score 80k point minimum, say 3hunj absolt max yearly fee. bi less than 2g's.

as someone once said, 'please explain'.

haha. i think i've caused some confusion.

I meant the 80k points for 2k total cost. Which would be comparable to sign up bonus for a credit card with most minimum spends requiring $3k+ in the first 60-90 days.

I ended up earning 79k points directly from my purchase and received a further 18k points via my qantas wine advisor, for a total cost of $1,800.

But you can get the same amount of points for ~$300 annual fee? Book a refundable trip and cancel once you get the points

Agreed! An alternative way to churn cards for points. Except without all the wine!

 

[bussyboy]

Why not both, meet the minimum spend by stocking up on refreshment!?

 

[Duffa]

Any comments on this wine please?


Can get another 10% PCP and $50 voucher off
Works out at $37 a pop!

 

[MELso]

Kooyong pinot noir is yummy! $37 a bottle is a steal.

I was quite happy with mine (I got all wine this time instead of half water) but I got 2 each of six different wines which were exactly the same in both boxes

Hi all - do you know if Qantas Wine are still doing their $50 birthday vouchers? I never got mine this year and I am Points Club Plus, so should get 2. Or have they scrapped this?

I received both $50 vouchers when I reached PCP, conveniently also in my birthday month. So this information probably doesnt help.
