Vinomofo Wine Deals

Re: Vinomofo secret wine deals

Just opened my first bottle of the sparkling white. Ordered a 6-pack, should have got at least a dozen. We will be having a party in a couple of months, it's excellent and I would not be ashamed to serve it. I hope it comes back around soon. (I presume they do get rotated?)

This Bissou Bissou? We don't really like it.

Any ideas on this Hunter Premium Shiraz? I'm not the biggest fan of Hunter Shiraz's but there are a few in that price range that are decent.

I suspect this is the Hungerford Hill Collection Hillside Vineyard Shiraz.

Well picked! I think I'll give it a miss - I think i've tried the 2010 and wasn't super impressed. Thanks!

I'm not sure it is the Hungerford Hill, the alccohol doesn't match up

Re: Vinomofo secret wine deals

Hmmm.. true.

Re: Vinomofo secret wine deals

Anyone have a hunch on what the McClaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon is? Just after a daily drinker and seems like good value but can be very hit and miss at the lower end of the market!

Sorry...was a bit rushed when looking it up.

Re: Vinomofo secret wine deals

I think that's the Thorne Clarke Terra Barossa? I know they've had that on for that price recently. It's off by 0.1% on the alcohol but otherwise I think it's correct.

Pretty good guess though.
They don't give away much these days and are making it harder to pin down what it is

Not a great deal to go on with this one but my guess would be the Mitolo Jester.

Oh actually that's it! I actually really enjoyed the last case for an everyday drop.

A little harder to tell when they don't tell you which "leading wine critic" gave the rating... I think we might be one data point short.

I have bought a case, for $74 (well my girlfriend's account did with my credit card and the $25 off referral) so will see how it goes. At pretty much $6 a bottle not a big loss if it doesn't stack up.

it's Tyson Stelzer

although he gives it to 2016 not 2018 (perhaps that's Yering Station's suggestion?)

Re: Vinomofo secret wine deals

Interesting - it has Tyson's name on the main page, but not in the email or the deal page... They have recycled that graphic a few times, but it does "fit"

The Pinot-loving Halliday only gave it 90, but rated the other 2010 Pinots from Yering well.

mof_s, you loved the 2010 and the 2011 vintage of Butler Crest's Margies Cabernet, and we're stoked to be bringing you this back release from their treasure trove of amazing wines. A premium WA red that flirts dangerously with Black Market territory at a whopping 66% off - we challenge you to find a wine of this pedigree for under $13.​

Re: Vinomofo secret wine deals

I got the same mail tk14... If you edit the link, it won't have your tracking detail in it...

Not too sure - I think it might not be the "best" year c.f. the 2010 which was quite good. But haven't tasted it...

But was the case you refer to the 2011? IIRC 2011 was only good WA and TAS, withe the rest of Aus a bit hit and miss?
