  • Works out alright with the Groupon coupon, the Chapel Hill isn’t a bad drop and normally retail ~$30 a bottle at Dan’s.

  • Bloody hell that's a good deal, and I have so much wine left but almost zero scotch ………………………………….

    Does anyone know if coupons stack? I have a separate $50 gift card as well.

    • I would like to know this also, would jump on this deal if they stack, but don't want to buy the Groupon voucher if they don't stack….

      • I saw no way to stack coupons when purchasing.

  • So $40 for the Johnny black
    Makes it $8 per bottle of wine

    It's the same problem I have with all of the cellarmaster mixes. Some of those wines are very mediocre, and some are decent:

    End-user ratings of those wines on Vivino:
    4.4/5 for Di Fabio Estate Shiraz Reserve Bush Vine: https://www.vivino.com/wineries/di-fabio-estate/wines/shiraz…
    3.4/5 for McWilliam's Shiraz Hilltops 2013: https://www.vivino.com/wineries/mc-williams-wines-pty-ltd-ev…
    3.9/5 for Vasarelli Pasquale's Selection: https://www.vivino.com/wineries/au-vasarelli/wines/pasquales…
    3.7/5 for Chapel Hill Bush Vine Grenache: https://www.vivino.com/wineries/chapel-hill/wines/bush-vine-…
    3.1/5 for Gallows The Bommy Shiraz: https://www.vivino.com/wineries/gallows/wines/bommy-shiraz-9…

    Anything from 3.7 up is generally reasonable, and anything from 3.9 up is good. Personally I draw the line at lower than 3.6 as life is too short to drink bad wine.

    Personally I'd give away/take to a BBQ the Gallows The Bommy Shiraz and the McWilliam's Shiraz Hilltops 2013, as I don't see much value at all in mediocre wine, but the rest look decent.

    In terms of the best value bonus bottle, comparing cheapest physical stores nearby, the Tanqueray Gin sells for $39.90 at Dan Murphys, and the Jonny Walker Black Scotch sells for $44.99 at Vintage Cellars, or $1 more at Dan Murphys. I.e. the Jonny Walker seems better value if you're on the fence between the two.

    If we assign $0 value to the mediocre wine (which I do), really it's 6 bottles of decent wine + a $45 bottle of scotch for $121.20, or if you were going to buy the scotch anyway, it's 121.20 - 45 = 76.20 for 6 decent bottles = 12.70 per bottle. That's not bad, but there are reasonable alternatives around that price point, albeit usually with a case of the same well-rated wine, whereas this does have variety going for it.

    • Make the Gallows and McWilliams either cooking wine or quaffer that you bring to parties. Problem solved.

    • Thanks for doing the research. The Vasarelli Pasquale's Selection is very good, I have bought that in a six previously.

  • Wouldn't trust vivino.

      Why not? I rate the wines we drink quite honestly. I'm open to alternatives, but it's the best I've found so far that allows end-user ratings + has most wines + is transparent + does not rely on the opinion of one expert (IMHO aggregated ratings are far more useful that just one rating) + you don't have to pay to use. Open to alternatives though, so please suggest something better!

      The main weakness of Vivino is insufficient ratings on some wines, especially those that are not sold through popular chains - e.g. if a wine has 3 ratings and a average score of 4.0, is it genuinely good, or did just the few 3 people who rated it like it and it's actually just okay? If there were higher numbers of ratings on more wines, that would improve it a lot, IMHO. If I'm buying something then I check numbers of ratings, want to see 15 or more ratings to know that there's some depth to that rating.

      P.s. what I personally find deeply untrustworthy is the reviews and tasting notes on the wine store websites. They make every wine they sell sound like the best thing since sliced bread, when statistically some of them must be pretty ordinary.

        Agreed

        I'm looking at you "Dan Murphy's Wine Panel" scores
