Curb side pick up!
6 x 2017 Yangarra McLaren Vale Shiraz
6 x 2017 Yangarra Old Vine Grenache
All at about CAD$26 each, cannot pass the opportunity in this neck of the wood.
Same wine store also offered the latest 2014 Grange for a mere CAD$600. What's up? Is the price OK? I did not grab any, being too old, will never have the opportunity to drink it well aged, even at my (well argued) accelerated ageing process. My Grange collection stopped at 2012.

I know exactly what you mean about not having the opportunity to drink it well aged. I have a chance of picking up a bottle Bin 707 for a "mere" $150 and tempting though it is (a bargain after all), I will give it a miss.

Wow Con - I'm thinking a Winter lockdown at your gaff with those fortifieds would not be too miserable afterall...

A mixed case of Tyrrells Private Bin whites; mostly 18/19 with 20 gone
A mixed case of Wynns/TWE thanks to a remote-staff connection on Wynnsday (some 2014 V&A, 13 Harold)
A mixed case of Bakkheia (Geographe); 3 roses, 3 fume blancs & the rest reds - I wasn't surprised to see this get a Halliday gong in the Best New Wineries list. Awesome wines for the price.
Half-case of 18 Marius from Gavin? - I said yes on the email but still awaiting news (no rush!)
And the usual bit of bottom-feeding at Langtons - some random Domaine Simha amongst other things.

Got too many young wines and not enough old, that's the trouble.
