Thought of it. Never had this particular one. In the end, I passed.

Description for the current wine:

"Ah, St. Emilion. Perhaps one of the world's most charming and beautiful burgs anywhere. Our collective jaws dropped when we tasted this killer Bordeaux - a beautiful, elegant, flavorful and perfectly balanced wine that just floats over your tongue. Truly amazing for the ridiculous price of $16. $16!! This is an easy wine to stock up on - drink it now or stash a few deep in the cellar for the next 5 years. What a buy!"

[Brandon Tai]

Anybody ever heard of Benessere? Price got me thinking, but I could also just go out and buy Mondavi Napa Cab for the same.

[J Sullivan]

Just saw the Greenock Creek Shiraz that's up right now. Looked at the enlarged photo of the label and noticed that it's 17% abv. Ridiculous!! Is this alcohol level common for Aussie Shiraz??

[J Sullivan]

They even use the words "jam-packed" and "pancakes" in the description!!

No, not at all common. That is pretty dang high!

Anybody else... or just me? The way some wines keep coming back I have a hard time believing that these offers are last bottle offers..??

[R. Gaston]

It just seems like during the past few weeks that the offers have been few and not that tempting... I hope they step up their game because I told a few friends that are ready to pull the trigger!

I'm thinking that if something isn't selling he pops up another offer and comes back to the one that was a dud so the site isn't stagnant.

Like now there is cava up that was up just a few days ago.

2007 Keller Pinot Noir El Coro is up now. I noticed in CT that Richard Jennings gave it a positive TN. I've not tried this producer, but IMO Richard's note suggests a middle of the road style ("berry syrup nose", but also described as delicate and floral). Anyone tried them?

[Joe Galewski]

I was slightly impressed with the 2006 Keller La Cruz vineyard. I know, different wine. For $29 I would give it a shot if I wasn't already drowning in pinot noir.

[Frank Smith]

Bump in honor of the "marathon madness" sale tomorrow. They had some good (but very brief) deals the last time they did that.

[Chris Blum]

I was excited when this site first started. Am I getting jaded or are the offers just not very compelling anymore?

[Mike DiSalvo]

<Bump in honor of the "marathon madness" sale tomorrow. They had some good (but very brief) deals the last time they did that.>

I'm not seeing what wines are being offered, only the price tag of $500 for the shipment.

That means it hasn't started yet...Mr. Impatient!

Just part of my morning routine at work, scurrying the wine sites. lol

Darn, I bought a three pack of them. Seemed like a good price.

Piker, I maxed out my cart with 12.

[sdfruman]

Head's up- looks like they've already begun...

[Brian Tuite]

I don't think so, they are charging shipping on that one unless you buy 3.

[Ivan T]

It's on now. Wow - a lot wine there.

[Barry IncaRoads Sheck]

"Madness" in that it is getting off to such a rocky start? I may be missing out on a deal of a lifetime, but I absolutely will not plunk down 500 clams for that damn black box! C'mon LB, shake off the cobwebs!

[Scott Butler (Online)]

Yeh, I am confused. Mine just shows the $500 black box. I even hit "purchase" in order to see if there was something on the next screen - now i have $500 of nothing in my cart that I cannot remove.

[JimmyGillingham]

I saw three different offerings before it went back to black. Not sure why it shut back down.

[Corey N.]

Just roll with it and think of it as Garagiste mystery wine.

Don't worry, I have $1,000. can't believe I hit that button twice!

[mike pobega]

Thats a rip off.
I can get for $475 locally.

[R. Wilhite]

I guess by Moving Sale they meant moving websites too

[mike pobega]

I hate myself for checking this continuously since 7am.
Flash Site Fail. Bigtime.

+1 but on a positive note, easier on the wallet.

And some work might get done this morning.
