Thanks Matt, whilst a bit of variety re additional releases of straight varietals is a good thing...and shakes things up over the last 35 years of the standard range. If a malbec comes around, then I hope there's not an accompanying mataro and or pressings in the same year... I'll need to rob a bank
Cheers Craig

same in the end.

Still seen no action on the credit card. Red Crayon for the last 10 years. Usually get 90% of what we order. Fingers crossed.

Mine came through on Friday - only ordered 6 in the end as I’m in the process of moving and the CC was hit for 2 each of the Shiraz, Cab Malbec and Shiraz Mataro

Same here Travis. I might have a 2 year gap in the cellar now.

No joy yet for me. I rang and was told I might get a 6 pack. Fingers crossed.

Sadly no charge for me yet. Brisbane red crayon for about 8 years. Asked for 6 of each... BUT my card for the last few days has been locked. I wonder if they call if they don't have any luck charging your card?

At least I got in on the Mount Mary release.

Card got hit yesterday for about half the price. Will see what I get.

Mine hit today for about a third

My credit card got nibbled today. Looks like I'm getting 2 bottles. Better than nothing!

There may have been a suggestion if for some strange reason you forget to include your mobile phone number on your order form your request was put to one side (and not filled) as Aus Post requires it. My order was eventually rectified after I contacted Wendouree. This maybe the cause of a few delays …. maybe

Just checked a photo I took of my completed order form and my mobile number is there. Just a bit unlucky this year I guess. Can't complain really as I've been able to buy their wines for almost a decade now.

Looks like I ended up with 6 x Shiraz and 6 of the Cabernet or a mix of the Cab and Cab blend. Nice!

They've been out of the Cabernet for some time. You would have the Cab Malbec (unless you also ordered the Shiraz Malbec)

I ordered 6 of each. It'll be the the Cabernet Malbec than. Happy with that!

Credit card was hit during the week. Possibly 2 x 6 packs. Will wait and see when they arrive.

There seems to be no Rhyme or reason, got hit and delivered weeks ago, got 3 each of the Shiraz, Shiraz mataro and cab malbec, 4 bottles of each would have been better but I've never missed out completely so can't complain!

Ordered 6 of each (30) and got charged for 6 - 20% success rate. Not particularly happy with that since I'm sharing with 2 mates, but oh well, I've got too much wine and drink too much anyway!

Similar with me. Ordered 24 and got 6 (on the list since 2015). Having a chat to others I know, it feels like WA got the short straw this year.

Yeh, possibly out of fairness, because we do get access to better wines here than the rest of the country

They are finishing up this week. My wine got sent to the wrong address, so they called up and said it was being sent out to the correct one. 2nd time that has happened in the last couple of years.

I got nothing last year, but got the 24 bottles I ordered this year. I’m appreciative as it’s my wife’s favourite wine. Been on the list since 2010. There really is no rhyme or reason how they do it.

Cheers
