GSM always catches my eye after grabbing the 2014 Maverick twins which has been one of my favourite drops. trying to make some guesses with all the knight and king talk but drawing blanks.

If you check the 2015 RQWS results, there's only one 2014 GSM that scored 95 from McLaren Vale...

Has anyone tried this wine. I'm assuming that given the low price it was originally massively overpriced at $50. I got one in a black market mixed case of 12. No plans to open it any time soon but interested if anyone else has tried one?

I have the previous vintage ...in my view a good wine and
excellent value at $15 bottle

I'm guessing the 6pack might be the Wolf Blass, given the 4 Jimmy Watson trophies. Possibly the White Label Robe Mt Benson, since the RRP and the 96pts match up (JH gave it 96). Not sure what the $180 2013 shiraz is - that's getting into RWT / Meshach territory, or overpriced China marketed stuff

The 6 Wolf Blass (agree with you it is probably White Label) are worth ~$150 so the Shiraz would need to be something absolutely phenomenal to make it worth bothering with.

Penfolds RWT is the only Barossa Shiraz I can think of that would be worth raising at that price, and got 97 points from Andrew Caillard, but I don't remember them ever having Penfolds before. What if it is something like Meschach which would be an immense ripoff?
 
They've given us absolutely nothing to work with except a 97 point score, no critic mentioned. Rockford Basket Press? Wolf Blass Platinum Label? I imagine they might give away the fact both were from the same producer so seems unlikely. Peter Lehmann Stonewell? They've had it before but $180 is way overs. Kaesler Old cough? I think they've had a few Kaeslers before.

I'm stumped and RWT is my best guess

Has anyone been able to uncover 2014 Mclaren Vale Grenache $35 down to $12.90? I loved the Lost Buoy wines and I'm secretly hoping it is! Thanks :)

Great question, and could be a reasonable swap for my Star Sangiovese which is going back. The shhpiel sounds very enticing doesn't it Wickad !

That AC fella is dammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn good !

These are the same crowd that has the Squid Ink which the 'fo had last year. Is that wine retailing at $150 worth it anyone, and for those who indulge in the centuries of retail, how does it rate with others? A few comments from others would be greatly appreciated as this is a domain I very rarely go to.

Back to the Grenache, I am getting a bit itchy and impatient as it reads very well, also following on from a mediocre 2013 Grenache. Plus, a little bit of variation in the varietl always helps, plus the very long cellaring potetntial. What am I doing here, trying to sell it to myself. A bit like Steadys Penfolds - how many did you buy mate?
