Why do we love this case?
The Lucky Dip Case is back! The first time we did this, we broke the internet. This time we’ve bubble-wrapped the servers because they’re in for another beating.
Every case contains the same eleven wicked wines, including some of our absolute faves here at the ‘fo. More info on them below, and they’re all good things. All mofo standard - i.e. nothing we haven’t enjoyed ourselves.
Then there’s the added excitement of seeing which one of these world-beater wines you will receive as your twelfth.
The twelfth wine is the wildcard and could be any one of these:
An iconic Penfolds Grange 2018 worth $1000 - (1 in 100 chance)
Chateau Yaldara 1847 Grand Pappy's Shiraz 2020 worth $320 - (1 in 10 chance)
d'Arenberg Dead Arm Shiraz 2018 - worth $78, - (1 in 25 chance)
Haselgrove Il Padrone Shiraz 2021 - worth $55 - (at a minimum!)
Each box contains one of these epic wines. The odds vary per wine, but each one is a centrepiece wine, worthy of some truly special occasions.
We should say up front: there are no returns on this - click here for case terms and conditions. As it’s a Lucky Dip, it would be unfair to other mofos running in the draw.
The easiest way to guarantee to get a bottle of Grange is to go out and buy one for yourself. If you, like me, don’t have $1000 handy, this is definitely your best (and cheapest) option! Heard enough already? Pop that case in the cart and cross your fingers and toes! Otherwise, read on for a bit more info on all those lovely wines:

2x Xanadu Circa 77 Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
Red — Cabernet Sauvignon
Margaret River — Australia
Bold, bodacious, balanced and bursting with fruits - this 89% cab sauv (with 4% merlot, 5% cabernet franc 2% petit verdot) is 100% mouth-watering. It's exactly what you'd expect from a vibrant Marg drop too - with regional flavours spanning bay leaf, to black olive and even a touch of liquorice to round out the red current characters. A subtle oakiness born from a lengthy 14 months stint in 20% new French oak is the perfect finishing touch. Perfect now or until 2030.
You’d pay $22 full price.

1x Mitolo Jester Shiraz 2021
Red — Shiraz
McLaren Vale — Australia
Boasting all the dark fleshy plums and blackberries you can poke a stick at, with subtle but lingering black olive and chocolate nuances long after your final gulp. With a lusciously smooth texture and lingering liveliness on the back palate, you're guaranteed quality quaffing through the next few years. There's a reason the jester has long been a favourite drop for mofos around Australia, and the stellar 2021 vintage is no exception.
You’d pay $25 full price.

2x Hollick Red Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
Red — Cabernet Sauvignon
Coonawarra — Australia
Estate fruit from the famed Hollick vineyards in Coonawarra, this is cab sauv like Aussies know and love. Certainly, a little bit of age behind this number has helped to fill out the mid palate, making it rich and dense with threads of fennel and mint throughout. It's very hard not to enjoy this wine- and we're speaking from experience.
You’d pay $35 full price.

2x Thistledown The Opportunist Shiraz 2022
Red — Shiraz
Langhorne Creek — Australia
A very smart little wine that is at once knock-about and complex. A medley of cherries and blackcurrants accompanied by hints of freshly ground coffee, dark chocolate, peppermint, liquorice, and subtle pepper aromas. It boasts a dense, velvety texture, offering a well-balanced fruit profile.
You’d pay $22 full price.

2x Sunshine Creek Block X Shiraz 2019
Red — Shiraz
Yarra Valley — Australia
An all-singing, all-dancing celebration of fruit. Shiraz from the cooler regions of the Yarra Valley with a neatly assembled bouquet of raspberry, red cherry, and juicy black currant. The fruit is focused and complete and pure in its expression. The ripe aromatic profile is supported by a bit of gamey decay, some brittle leaves and delicate dried flower. Shapely and full in the mouth - the tannic profile has relaxed a little but still offers structure and a bit of welcome rigidity. Fresh and vibrant and extremely approachable - the 2019 Block X is smack bang in the middle of it’s drinking window
You’d pay $32 full price.
Tasting Notes
2x St John's Road Motley Bunch GSM 2018
Red — GSM
Barossa Valley — Australia
We love how each variety plays the perfect role in this blend - from the savoury feel of the grenache, to the flesh and deeper flavours of the mataro, to the structure that shiraz delivers to bring it all home. There's ample amount to love about this drop, but we're really applauding it for its all-round friendliness. Three cheers to GSM, any night of the week.
You’d pay $24 full price.

Wild Card Wine #1
Penfolds Grange Shiraz 2018
South Australia
100pts Andrew Caillard MW | 100pts Tony Love | 100pts James Suckling | 100pts Lisa Perrotti-Brown | 100pts Ken Garget
“A robust Grange from a lauded vintage, this wields sheer power with such compelling prowess. Uncompromising Grange. There are rich blackberries and plums on offer, together with brazen oak and abundant notes of blackcurrants, black cherries, charcoal, cola and hard brown spices. So fleshy and intense. Dark-chocolate and cocoa-powder aromas and flavors here, too. The tannins are polished and long, extruding deep into the finish and holding endlessly. Dark chocolate, black cherry, dark plum and more. Impressive. Brazen. One of the great Granges that will drink magnificently for decades to come.” - James Suckling
“Deep colour. Beautiful and classic with intense blackberry, blackcurrant dark chocolate espresso aromas and wax polish, roasted chestnut, malt notes. Superbly concentrated wine with deep set inky blackberry, blackcurrant, dark plum, dark chocolate mocha flavours, fine chocolaty/ velvety tannins, underlying espresso, malt, oak notes and hints of aniseed. Finishes chocolaty firm with superbly integrated acidity and mineral length. A glorious year for Grange. This will last 50 years at least. Wonderful. One of the greatest vintages of all time highlighting a superb growing season, marvellous vineyard management, the fidelity of the Penfolds housemaking style and generations of imagination and effort. 97% Shiraz, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon. Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Clare Valley. 18 months maturation in 100% new American oak hogsheads. Drink 2030-2060+” - Andrew caillard
“A much-awaited vintage that fulfils expectations and then some. It has all the elements that you come to expect but still you have to sit back and marvel that so much can be going on inside one wine. Firstly, it simply ain’t Grange unless it is wearing its traditional American oak coat, and this iteration isn’t going to shy away from that. But perhaps it is the generosity across the board of South Australia’s 2018 vintage that gathers in 18 months of barrel maturation, puts shape to its broad-shouldered dark fruits, turns oak notes into chocolate and sarsaparilla characters on one side of the brain and beef and mushroom braise in the other. All in all, it is a fabulous balance of inputs: big fruit, classically prominent oak, all its structural tannins and acidity fitting cleverly into one exceptionally complex and engaging being. Palate length is indefinite, perhaps suggesting similar cellaring potential well into the second half of the 21st century. Magnificent.” Ken Garget, Wine Pilot

Wild Card Wine #2
Chateau Yaldara 1847 Grand Pappy's Shiraz 2020
Barossa Valley, SA
96pts Wine Orbit | 4.3 Vivino | Five Stars Wine Orbit
We all know the Barossa, and likely this icon of a wine, but do we really know it’s history? Introducing to you pioneers of this famed region, with this winery established over 150 years ago. They show no mercy when it comes to staying true to the region: meaty, bold, and focused reds with a whole lot of character. You know what we’re talking about: eye-catching hues of purple, soft and silky tannins, and more plummy goodness than you can poke a stick at. There’s cherry and rhubarb sure, but we’re talking unapologetic notes of chocolate, toasty oak and handfuls of freshly cracked pepper. It’s a showstopper, and built to impress even the most discerning of critics.
YOU’D PAY $320 full price.
Wild Card Wine #3
d'Arenberg Dead Arm Shiraz 2018
McLaren Vale, SA
96pts James Suckling | 94pts Winestate Magazine | Outstanding, Langton’s Classification of Australian Wine | 4.2 Vivino (All Vintages)
Impossible to overstate the excellence on offer here. This is superb stuff. There is so much complexity and depth to the wine, something new is ready to reveal itself at every sip. Cassis and black cherry out of the gate. Some riper, richer plums and brambles mix with roasted vegetables and sweet spice. It's powerful but never overbearing, full and rich but precise and focused - everything is as it should be. A wine with genuine presence on the palate. Oomph that doesn't veer into being unctuous. The structure of the wine will ensure it is long lived; while drinking brilliantly now, this is a wine with a conservative two decades left in the tank.
YOU’D PAY $78 full price.
Wild Card Wine #4
Haselgrove Il Padrone Shiraz 2021
McLaren Vale, SA
96pts Wine Orbit | 95pts Wine Showcase Magazine | Gold Medal Wine Showcase Magazine | Five Stars Wine Orbit | Five Red Star Halliday Rated Winery | Mofo Fave
Lovers of classic Vale shiraz will adore this! It’s big, rich & round (we’re salivating already) and offers loads of inky goodness to get lost in. Plush, chewy berries with hints of peppery spice and leather float intriguingly across the palate. Plums, blueberries and juicy black cherries dominate the fruit spectrum in that inimitable Vale dark coffee-cake profile. It’ll get even more attractive in a few years, but I, for one, won’t be able to keep my hands off it until then.
YOU’D PAY $55 full price.
