Wine treasure hunt wines
Ok, so compiled a list that I think everyone can find at least one if not most of, in their respective areas.Problem: didn't know the financial situation of everyone involved and forgot to get a ballpark of what everyone was willing to pay for this little adventure.
That in mind I kept it on the conservative low end with $20 being the cap.
Remember: YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY ANY OR ALL OF THESE WINES YET!!!
We are only trying to find some juice that everyone has access to first.
I stuck with reds of different types. We will do whites next then bubbles then we will just move on from there.
Also you are not expected to locate all of these wines. Just as many as you can so that we have the largest common denominator.
The wines in no particular order:
Ironberry: Austailia $9.99 Cab-shiraz-merlot blend
Pillar box Red: Austrailia $9.99 Cab-shiraz-merlot blend
Penfolds bin 389: Austrailia $18.99 Cab-shiraz
Michael Pozzan: California $13.99 Cabernet Sauvignon
Casillero del Diablo (Concha Y tora): Chile $9.99 Carmenere not the cab
Carchello: Spain $9.99 Monastrell
The Custodian (D'Arengberg): Austrailia $19.99 Grenache
Beckman: California $19.99 Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Coonoise
Happy hunting
God speed

Great!
Just make sure the Penfolds is BIN 389 they have a large line of Bins.
And the Diablo is the carmenere.
I have a feeling that everyone will find the 389.
fairly common these days.
Wow! I am so glad I found this blog! Just did a search on TROGDOR and you came up! YAY! I can wait to find out what your tasting group reveals!
We found the Pillar Box Red. Still hunting...
I love the pillar box. :)
