For a big release, I found it a little odd that this wasn't mentioned in the daily email. Looking at the writeup, they may have released it a day early.
Full price $26.00 from winery on 20/11/15. Which is tomorrow's date.

Well picked up!

The Seppelt Pinot sounds yum. Assault on the credit card month.

Not had it. But I'd expect something good from Seppelt.

 

[Tock]

Yep, some decent reviews around too. Probably take the drop, it's summer (my current justification for buying everything)!!

But thats not even close. The Alc % is wrong as well.

Check out the tasting notes on their club info. All the other details are a pretty good match (no blend details, but price point, accolades, region etc).

The listing seems to have had its accolades updated.... now you see it, now you dont....

Usual VM deception at play it seems.

Or they've just updated it with the correct info. I dont understand why you bother with this thread if you have such disdain for Vinomofo....

I like VM, some great deals but there's certainly some strange stuff goes on. I ordered a BM Pyrenees Shiraz 2014 reduced from $30 - $9/bottle the other week after being confirmed by my broker it was Mount Avoca. I assumed it was their Estate range having had the Cab Sav and the price point was right too. When it arrived though it was the Back Block. Tried it as was very happy with it. The odd thing was though that the Mount Avoca website was selling it at $35/bottle $5 more than the VM sales pitch. I've never seen them under quote a wine before. The other weird thing was that the bottle shape was different to that on the MA website...

I've never claimed I have disdain for VM. To state that represents a misunderstanding of my posts.

I've purchased on many occasions from VM over the course of several years. I have offered valid critiques and warnings of their behaviour as well as indicated that they have on occasion breached various principles of consumer protection law, though.

"usual VM deception" would imply you have an ongoing issue with them. Everyone makes typos/mistakes, particularly when content is copied and pasted. Its not necessarily intended or in any way vindictive. They obviously put the wrong "medal" image in so theyve updated it, not deception but a mistake.

Katy is one lucky gal today !

Indeed she is!

I'm very much looking forward to trying this one before the weekend; I think I've found my wine to take to dinner with the in-laws tomorrow night

Notice how pointless a statement that is?

I have (...) *repeatedly expressed my opinion* that they have on occasion breached various principles of consumer protection law, though.

There, fixed that for you.

 

[Dr Ralph]

There, fixed that for you.

You don't seem to understand the difference between opinion and established legal fact. But that's OK. I'm happy for you to block me so you can't see my posts anymore. As should anyone else that isn't comfortable with me pointing out accurate statements.

 

[Dr Ralph]

"usual VM deception" would imply you have an ongoing issue with them.

On going issue? Yes. Particularly as the frequency of their errors increases. Disdain? No. They are worthy of my time.

You've stated that you have "no confidence in VM". You really should go see a technician to get your record player fixed.

Edit: fixed quote.
