This looks like another great deal from Vinomofo.

They're claiming 50% off however I found it for $382 a case here- http://www.wineboneyard.com.au/review/product/list/id/1985/#…

Dan's don't seem to have it in stock either but have some good info about the wine.

Tasting notes:

Very deep, verging on opaque black crimson red colour with brick red hue showing signs of bottle age. The nose has that distinctive Cabernet lift with notes of blackcurrant, cedar, cassis and truffle. The fine grained tannin structure is in balance with the fruit, with flavours of blackcurrant, spice and cedar emerging with a hint of liquorice on the back palate. Aftertaste of blackcurrant and cedar with the palate medium to full-bodied with sweet, dark berry flavours, a plummy middle, solid tannins, bright acidity, and a dry, cassis finish. It's a lovely wine that can handle a bit of cellaring.

The 'Trio' of Limestone Ridge, Pyrus and St George have been Aussie stalwarts for over four decades. They are made from Coonawarra fruit, and the Pyrus is the cab sav blend.

Past Accolades:

Jeremy Oliver says: 93
Fine-grained and elegant, this supple and stylish Bordeaux blend has balance, structure and an enticing, floral perfume of red berries, cassis, plums and fresh cedary oak backed by dusty notes of dried herbs. It?s charmingly long and measured, with an intense presence of small black and red berries, cherries and a tight-knit backbone, finishing with a suggestion of dried herbs.

James Halliday says: 96
Deep crimson-purple; has more depth and complexity than recent vintages, and has relished its 18-month sojourn in new and used French oak; the flavours are a classic mix of blackcurrant and a twist of black olive, the tannins fine and polished. A long life ahead.
