IMPORTANT: This wine is the third bottling from the two previous offers.

https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/883798

https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/902893

While it differs slightly from the original wine and comes in new packaging and bottle, it maintains the quality you would expect.

A Premium Barossa Valley Shiraz at $110/Dozen.

THIS IS A PRE-SALE. 

WE SHOULD RECEIVE THIS WINE IN ABOUT 2 WEEKS.

ONCE WE DO, WE WILL START WITH THE DELIVERIES AS PER USUAL.

This wine was kept for export but luckily it's still here.

Definitely one of the best deals we have ever done with over 2000 dozen already sold.

  • Some Random Guy on 30/07/2025 - 14:14

    It is amazing that Aussie exports can be made and sold extremely cheap (like we'll bend over backwards to get shafted).

    But heaven forbid a winery (or other producer) be locally know as "cheap" (a better word would be priced competitively).

    Like do they forgot that if the wine is good people will buy it and having it priced below competitors would mean people will buy it often?

    But instead let's shaft the locals, sell cheap overseas, and if the foreigners shafts us then the locals can get a deal.

    I could also be crazy but there's the underlying feelings that Australian goods for Australia are either second class in quality or priced through the roof.

    And this is based on a comment on a previous batch where it's cheap due to an export deal falling through

    • alcadive on 30/07/2025 - 17:05

      It’s not logical but people associate price with quality. Especially for something as subjective as the taste of wine.

    • Bargin Boy on 30/07/2025 - 19:14

      Bit like the cheap crays when China banned them

    • Maichu on 30/07/2025 - 19:41

      Is it worse to bend over backwards, or forwards, to get shafted?

        I prefer backwards, but YMMV.

    Does it really taste like $100/bottle quality?

    • Merish4U on 30/07/2025 - 15:07
      +6

      Exactly. I mean and has it ever been sighted in the wild actually being sold and bought at that price or is it just a big RRP to look impressive but nobody has ever paid that for a single bottle of it? Rhetoric question I suspect. But if the RRP is to be brandished to impress I think it's something reasonable to comment on.

      • Merish4U on 30/07/2025 - 16:03

        And I mean that is all an aside…..from past deals, seems a great drop and is priced well. On that basis I am sure it's very good value but the RRP does seem 'optimistic'. ;-)

      • PCHammond on 30/07/2025 - 17:19
        +5

        I bought the second batch and I'm very happy with the buy.

        Most of my own bottles are between $50-120, and I can tell you emphatically that I would be pissed off if I paid anywhere near $100 a bottle for this.

        At under $10 per bottle, amazing value.
        $20 would seem about right and I would be happy to pay this normally.
        $30 would seem the upper limit, but that would be debatable
        $50 no bloody way: you're near The Struie pricing

        It's a winery owned by CW, so inflated RRPs are the norm. But at this price it's a good deal

    Stelvin

    • TommyGun on 30/07/2025 - 16:18

      out of interest why is cork used so frequently for export?

      • MarketingSkye Cellars @ Skye Cellars on 30/07/2025 - 16:31

        My personal opinion is that in China & Europe, cork is regarded as a symbol of high quality.

        • MarketingSkye Cellars @ Skye Cellars on 30/07/2025 - 16:37

          Your opinion is correct, I sell 300k bottles per year around the world and my sales of corked vs uncorked (of the same SKU) skew heavily towards corked for the Chinese and French markets specifically

      • hooray on 31/07/2025 - 14:07

    How do things go from "The winery had a small amount left" (which sells out) to a whole new batch? Doesn't add up. And why is this now the 3rd different pricing for this?

    • MarketingSkye Cellars @ Skye Cellars on 30/07/2025 - 17:34
      +7

      So, the winery had a small amount already bottled in cork for China.
      We bought it and sold it.
      Because it sold really quick, we asked the winery if they had anymore.
      They said they have some in tank but not bottled.
      We asked them to bottle some more and they did but with a cheaper bottle and stelvin closure to lower their costs and we were able to sell it for $99/Dozen instead of $119.40.
      That sold out quickly too, so we asked if there's any more that they could bottle, and they said yes but at a slightly higher price.
      Knowing the quality of the wine, we accepted the higher price as we thought it would still sell at $110 and actually it is selling really well.
      Hope this information helps.
      Cheers

      • freeb1e4me on 30/07/2025 - 17:45

        That sold out quickly too, so we asked if there's any more that they could bottle, and they said yes but at a slightly higher price.

        FYI, that translates to skye cellars not passing on the savings with the 3rd batch because it sold so well

        • MarketingSkye Cellars @ Skye Cellars on 30/07/2025 - 17:48

          Our margin is still the same.
          The winery is making slightly more.
          And why shouldn't they?

            @Skye Cellars:

            And why shouldn't they?

            It’s greedy to bump the price 11.1% in just over a month from the previous deal for essentially the same product

      According to Skye Cellars you just have to ask and it will magically restock - see below

      That sold out quickly too, so we asked if there's any more that they could bottle, and they said yes but at a slightly higher price - Skye Cellars

    Tried one of my December 2024 batch.
    Gave it as a blind taste to my better half with the great wine palate who was not upset at the $10:00 I had paid but could understand why it never made it to export.
    RRP of $120 is completely delusional nonsense.
    My own thoughts on drinking it were NOT to order any more.
    For under $10:00 you can't go wrong but think of it as pig with lipstick rather than rare breed pork at a mega discount.

  • MattyD on 30/07/2025 - 20:14

    Whilst I completely respect the opinion of those that don't find this a great value wine at this price, geez I wish they would put a little more on the line and provide a list of better $10 shiraz labels.

    Like, seriously, none of us buyers stay up at night thinking of ways to defend this exact drop. If there is a better buy for $10/bottle, put your favourites out there to be tested and discussed.

    • GRP on 30/07/2025 - 20:24

      Buy Koonunga Hill or Wynns at best price and cellar for a few years and you will be surprised.

      Aldi regularly have wine close to the mark. Currently have a Reschke Cab Sav 2022 $11.99 or the Montepulciano D'Abruzzo DOCG 2021 $11.99 which is likely worth a try.

      I think it is fine for under $10:00 but it is not as promoted a mega bargain and it is certainly not a real world RRP$110.00 wine at huge discount.

      I like my bargains but I happily spend a few $K on my annual Rockford allocation.

      • PCHammond on 30/07/2025 - 21:28
        +2

        Reschke has been so diluted as a brand, and I feel that their wines are not the same anymore. I have some RSR and Empyrean, with some age, that I bought on sale, and I really do not rate them.

        I personally feel that this deal is more than fine and that people should be happy to buy it, but should not expect a $100 bottle. It's probably closer to a $20 bottle. It's definitely a decent mid week quaffer and good for the spag bol. It's a solid entryish level Barossa shiraz

        I also like my 2x a year Rockford order. You should also check out Ballycroft

        • GRP on 31/07/2025 - 15:44

          I do have some great aged Reschke but now at Aldi, Kogan and others.

          This wine is fine for $10 and agree not worth more than $20.

          Serious bargain buys tend to turn up in the $20 to $40 range for $100 wine.

          Will look into Ballycroft.

          Have you had Kalleske?

          • PCHammond on 31/07/2025 - 17:50

            @GRP: Kallaeske is solid

            Joe at Ballycroft is ex Rockford and ex Greenock Creek. His vines are from Rockford cuttings.

    • PCHammond on 30/07/2025 - 22:43

      I dont really rate any shiraz near $10, outside of the ones in deals, including this one.

      At that price range I would go a cheap cote du rhone or a malbec or a cheap italian/spanish/Portuguese. Government subsidies or mininal labour laws makes their entry level wines alot more appealing.

      But yes I completely agree with your post. For sub $10 this is a good deal

      • thestig on 30/07/2025 - 23:16

        How does this rate for sub $20? Still a good deal or would you recommend another Shiraz deal?
