Exactly. Loads of CW wines going cheap at the moment - must be plenty overstocked and the ongoing glut of wine must be hurting (less consumption, huge vintage in 2021, ongoing export sales issues). I saw some Reschke RSR (another CW wine) going for $12.99 in a dozen the other day down from $75. There's definitely some well reviewed wine in there but I'd say they really need to figure out what their price point is going forward so they don't have to massively discount everything.
Please let me know where the RSR is for $12.99 as I honeslty will buy some for myself.
It's a good wine and at that price I would buy some to drink at home.

In Melbourne, starts with W rhymes with Tar… it's one of their mystery wines :)
@Skye Cellars: Actually I found it.
It's the 2020.
I was hoping it would be the 2012, 2014 or 16.
But thanks anyway.
$30+ per bottle for random wines without a tasting….
While I like Ulithorne wines, they are perpetually overpriced. The stonehaven, going by the massive bottle, was probably meant to be an export (the heavier the bottle the better in China). Both are owned by CW Wines.
The Glenroy is nice but IIRC I think I paid about $30 a bottle for a 6 pack of an earlier vintage (same kind of 70-80% off thing)
So not a terrible price, but the usual wariness should apply around buying wine that's heavily "discounted". The bottles would look good on the table and a good excuse to use a corkscrew, but corks are solely there to look good - they're not better for the wine.
