I stuck my head in at the cellar door in Haro last week. They would only sell you a bottle of Gravonia if you bought 5 of Tondonia red. And they weren’t willing to sell any of the rosé. TWS box is a good arrangement.

Shrine to the Vine have Gravonia at £35 a pop and plenty of stock, TWS box is really a way to get to the Rosado without spending stupid money.

De Burgh selling off Chablis. Looks like genuine discounts around the 20% mark. Lesser producers like Jean Dauvissat bringing 1er cru in at £25 a bottle for 2020

That offer has now finished but now doing an up to 25% off selected Burgundies. You can also get an extra 10% your first order if over £120 and free delivery over £100. Good deal I think.

Tim Adams Riesling slightly reduced to a tenner, with free delivery, via their website. Only until Sunday. You need to click through to see the discount. Might be of interest now that a certain deplorable supermarket has stopped stocking it.

I've suddenly started getting emails from Tim Adams when I've never signed up with them. I wondered if it was because I bought the Riesling from TEE. So essentially my address has been passed onto the winery via TEE. Is that legal?

I know we distrust our mega-market chains, but they will never indulge in this sort of data sharing, this is likely from another source.

Someone I know once suggested that when providing an email address to a company you should put the name of that company as your middle name, thus allowing you see which of the blighters shared your details!

if you use gmail you can do "firstbit+anything@gmail.com" and it all comes to the same inbox.

An absolutely fabulous trick if you’re testing customer portals and need to link multiple accounts to “unique” email addresses!

Thanks Ben, that's good to know.
I still get a lot of email from reputable companies that shouldn't still have my email address as it should be deleted under gdpr. Should I be reporting them?

I suspect it’s more about poor data management from companies than anything nefarious so reporting them maybe a little tough to start with, if they are reputable I would reply to the email requesting that your email and data is deleted to start with

Appreciating that the retailer's name i am about to mention is something of a pariah on this forum, on one of my Amex cards there's an offer for £80 off if you spend £260 or more at Laithwaites. Quite a sizeable discount even allowing for Laithwaite's usually somewhat inflated prices. Worth looking out for if you have an Amex.

Not necessarily a competitive offer, but there is some Tondonia and Gravonia Blanco, and also the 2001 Gran reserva red on TWS. Plus Burlotto dolcetto.

Went to place an order in hope, but as per last week Gravonia out of stock.

Much as I admire Burlotto I haven't found the Dolcetto to be worth pursuing.

Gravonia 2015 at L&W a very reasonable £22.50 ib

Just had an offer for Lanson Extra Age Brut NV drop into my mailbox from N.D. John Wine Merchants for £39.95 per bottle. Seems to be a significant bargain in comparison to other WS Pro pricing. Anyone have much experience of this, not normally a massive fan of Lanson but this seems a bit of a steal.
As ever, no association except having bought a few things from them previously

Think Extra Age was one of the M&S sell off bargains so should be some experience
