[quote=sdrealtor]Here is the Syrah deal of the year if you can still get in on it. I got the email earlier today and ordered mine. The guy I spoke to said it was going very fast.
Amazing Grapes is getting the 2008 Schild Estate Barossa Syrah. It was #7 on WS Top 100 and got 94 pts. I dont know how good it is as no one has gotten any in the US as it wasnt released. BUt for the price it’s a cant miss deal. They are taking orders for February delivery at $18.98/btl. Take that one to the bank!
Thanks for the tips sdr… I had just signed up for Amazing Grapes per your suggestion, and was really tempted on this… after reading your message above I went ahead and pulled the trigger. Aussie Shiraz is my favorite.
On that note, I can make a recommendation for a wine that is (in my humble and not super wine-sophisticated opinion) an absolutely killer deal. I mentioned it prior in the thread: Burge Family Winemakers 2006 Draycott Shiraz. This is practically my perfect wine, given my likes/dislikes (which of course are different for everyone, by way of disclaimer). I absolutely love it. And it is selling at a bargain basement $20 over at winex:
If you don’t trust my recommendation, that’s probably a good idea, because I am an amateur. However, none other than barnaby33 introduced me to this wine, so it is also well liked by at least one wine sophisticate.
Anyway, I have been stockpiling it at these prices… I recommend you all order some before I get what remains. 😉
