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)
Hewitson Cask 66 Shiraz 2023 - worth $450 - (1 in 25 chance)
St Hallet Sacred Ground Shiraz 2022 - worth $95 - (1 in 10 chance)
Ivyburn First Minister Shiraz 2022 - 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:

1x Mitolo Wines Jester Black 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. A prized producer and a prized shiraz. This one's got 'long-lunch' written all over it... and a bit of 'dancing on the table with a bottle in your hand after a long-lunch' about it too, if we're honest. These are the wines we love. This is the answer to all of your midweek quaffer conundrums. This is one iconic McLaren Vale producer, known for incredible red wines that speak to their Italian heritage. Texturally, this is smoother than Barry White and a lingering liveliness on the back palate ensures pleasurable quaffing from now right through the next few years. It’s an easy-going medium-bodied drop with surprising balance, depth of flavour and length.
You’d pay $30 full price.

2x Di Fabio Sand Road Single Vineyard Montepulciano 2019
Red — Montepulciano
McLaren Vale — Australia
Italian varieties and McLaren Vale have a long and happy relationship. This montepulciano might just be the new favourite. Medium-bodied, precise and genuinely elegant. This is a wine that rewards the kind of attention you give it over a long meal rather than a quick glass on the run. Speaking of which - get some pasta on. Seriously. This wine is practically begging for it. From a family-owned McLaren Vale producer with genuine (and proud) Italian heritage and the winemaking credentials to back it up. At this price, it's an absolute steal for a wine with this much development and complexity. This one has six years of age on it now, and it's sitting in a really beautiful place. The fruit is still alive and vibrant - cherry, spicy blackberry, a warm and savoury core - but time has added something extra. A hint of leather, a gentle earthiness, and tannins that have completely shed any youthful grip and settled into something seamless and polished. That classic McLaren Vale natural acidity is the star of the show here, giving the wine a lift and energy that makes it feel far more youthful than a 2019 has any right to.
You’d pay $30 full price.

2x Aramis White Label Shiraz 2022
Red — Shiraz
McLaren Vale — Australia
This little beauty is punching above its weight and then some. From an enviably located vineyard whose fruit is in high demand from very prestigious Vale producers, this small batch producer holds back some parcels to craft this delicious drop. Every single review on this wine mentions value for money, and they're talking full rrp when they do, so this is an epic deal here. It walks a perfectly balanced line between opulent and elegant, earthy and fruit-forward, intenisty and complexity.
You’d pay $25 full price.

2x Thistledown Wild & Wilder 'Pugilist' Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Red — Cabernet Sauvignon
Langhorne Creek — Australia
This pan-South Aussie producer is fast becoming a mofo favourite across their delicious red and white wines. They seek out parcels of quality grapes in Barossa, McLaren and in this case the maritime region of Langhorne Creek. Their wines are made to a high-standard across the range and are reliably delicious. This cabernet shows off a perfumed nose of flowers, juicy plums and dried herbs, followed by a medium-bodied, ripe and textured palate. There’s a gentle earthiness in the wine that is wrapped in blackberries and a lingering olive tapenade finish.
You’d pay $22 full price.

2x Farmer's Leap Random Shot Shiraz 2022
Red — Shiraz
Padthaway — Australia
From a little-known corner of South Australia (completely covered in ex-Grange vineyards) comes this exceptional value shiraz. It’s absolutely jam-packed with stewed fruit, chocolate and liquorice. Ripe and delicious flavour that packs a real punch is carried on the back of bright acidity, lifting blackberries, bramble, black cherry and prosciutto notes alike to a long and delectable finish. This has to be up there in terms of best value buys. Whether you’re shopping for a pantry-stocking quaffer or something to share with the family over Sunday lunch, this is a great value contender with a foot in both camps.
You’d pay $22 full price.

2x Peter Lehmann Layers Red 2021
Red — Shiraz Blend
Barossa — Australia
This bombshell Barossa blend comes from a producer so iconic we’re shocked they even had any stock for us - and trust us, that alone should get your heart rate up. A cheeky, yet well thought out shiraz blend, this one's all about bold flavours and a silky-smooth texture. Great stuff. In the glass it pops a vibrant crimson - extremely bright and alive. From the first sniff, you start picking up dark cherry, spice and a little something savoury that tells you this isn’t your average mid-week red. Shiraz brings the power and depth, tempranillo locks in that firm, savoury edge, and mourvèdre throws in its trademark wild, earthy charm. Then grenache swoops in like the glue that holds the whole thing together, smoothing the palate and lifting the aromatics. The end result is a silky, seamless blend with real Barossa muscle but none of the sluggishness. Plush fruit, spice, texture and length for days.
You’d pay $20 full price.

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
Hewitson Cask 66 Shiraz 2023
Barossa Valley, SA
98pts Wine Orbit | 4.1 Vivino (All Vintages) | Five Star Halliday Rated Winery | Small Batch
From one of our favourite Barossa producers, who have brought us multiple 98 and 99 pointed drops before, comes this incredible special release shiraz that will continue to improve for the next 20 years. Careful maturation in specially selected highest-grade French oak, followed by barrel selection of the finest juice, has helped craft this unparalleled expression of the country's top grape/region combination. Compellingly complex, the nose shows rich, ripe plums and bramble fruit with black cherries. Supporting is an excellent intermingling of charcuterie, black olives, cocoa and liquorice. The palate is simultaneously refined and powerful, with beautifully ripe tannins and a clean line of acidity supporting an incredibly long finish. This is premium Barossa at it's absolute best.

St Hallet Sacred Ground Shiraz 2022
Barossa Valley, SA
94pts Ken Gargett Wine Pilot | 4.0 Vivino (All Vintages) | Five Red Star Halliday Rated Winery| 9/10 Vintage Halliday Wine Companion | Iconic Producer | Killer Vintage
There is no mistaking a St Hallett classic - when it comes to shiraz, and when it comes to Barossa, they don't muck about. The Sacred Ground is an old favourite among the 'big and bold' faithful, and this iteration is no departure from that well earned reputation. Rich, ripe, chocolate, earthy and opulent. Little hints of cedar and tobacco sit deftly around determined, full throttle fruit density. St Hallett at their best - unashamedly broad and imposing while remaining stylish, complex, and relinquishing no ground when it comes to sophistication.

Wild Card Wine #4
Ivyburn First Minister Shiraz 2022
McLaren Vale, SA
96pts Wine Orbit | Five Stars Wine Orbit | Killer Vintage
This deeply personable shiraz expresses ripe red berries, black pepper, spice and blackcurrant . Full-bodied and complex, the ripe characteristics of rich, broad fruits, and overt chocolatey notes tell you that, odds are, you're in the great McLaren Vale region. In other words, this is a strikingly regional wine that expresses all that is great about this phenomenal region. Fragrant American oak is displayed with intensity and vibrancy and, along with an already present texture and structure, set this wine up for a very long life in the cellar. Drink now - 2035 (at least).
