And another one you may be interested in:
Jackson Estate Grey Ghost 2010, best price £10 a bottle

http://www.buyapowa.com/ref/92N4DB

Another decent bargain to be had here. Being slightly oaked this should have more longevity than standard MSB too

It scored 93 pts from bob C and goes for minimum of £18 elsewhere it seems (£22.50 at Maj !! :shock: )
I've just bought 6 but there are are only 25 cases on offer again so be quick folks!

Yeah, I know, just found out, then saw your sprint to the finish. I'd bought the Chablis, so was looking for someone to take 3 off me, for swaps.

Damn.

Shez, Good decision, jolly pleased you got some. Nice 2010 fruit, married to light oak. I don't know the ten, nor the '09, from the textbook of interpolation though, looking good to V.good. Drink or keep

I (we) shall expect a TN ! - please

If you were close-by Shez, we could widen the depth (of choice :wink: ) of our cellars - without spending more.

Along with Big T, our friends at Maj have been taking the mikey for the desirable and/or afforable and approachable fine wines recently (£22.50) :shock:

I guess Maj have to up it up to a level so that when they run their regular 20% of 2 NZ wines this then get marked just below or in line with the rest of the market. minus £4.50 it would be £18 like everywhere else but if they already had it at £18, then when the 20% comes about they'd have the stocks cleared too darned quickly

I was thinking just the same when the MdR was on offer. I wasn't sure I wanted to drop £120 on 6 bottles but would have been more inclined to split it down the middle with someone else.
And there have been other instances in the past where I've come across other wines I'd like to have split/shared with your good self
