Shhhh! Secrets...
Here is a selection of some of the secret deals we've offered our subscribers recently. Why the secrecy? Why can't we just tell you what the wine is?
We often get asked this and understand that it can be frustrating as a punter to see offers like these... but it means we can offer you wine at an even better price than usual so it's worth it we reckon...
Sometimes we get access to wine at a particularly sharp price. Maybe the winery wants to release their new vintage and needs to clear the previous one, or an anticipated big order hasn’t come through... whatever the case, if the wine gets the thumbs up from the WD tasting panel, and the price is especially good, we can offer it to you at a price substantially below what it is usually sold for.
Understandably the wine ...
