Wine Bargain Post Number 12 (I think)

Rex Watson.  A name not familiar to most avid wine consumers I am guessing.  Well, I'm not surprised.  He doesn't get out much these days and for somebody who looks around for a good buy, I haven't seen him around at all for some time.  I am happy to say, he has decided to pop his head up in a big but very cheap way.  Dan Murphy's currently have the Cabernet Sauvignon for $55 a dozen delivered.  The next best price I can find on the internet for the same wine is almost $152 a carton delivered.  Okay, so it ain't no premium Coonawarra red wine but I have had it in the past and it is really good value for money.  Here is what the Watson Wine Group have to say about it.
"This Cabernet Sauvignon in vibrant red in colour with attractive plum hues, this wine displays classic Coonawarra cabernet aromas of red berry fruit, leaf and lightly spiced oak. These flavours carry through to the front palate accompanied by an earthy nuance which complements the soft sweet tannin finish. 13.5% Alc."
This special is only on until the end of today so log onto the Dan Murphy's website and scoop up some of this bargain basement, quaffable red nectar.  'Til next time and remember to live simply, laugh often, wine alot.
