Why do we love this case?
The Lucky Dip Case is here! The first time we did this in Australia, we broke the internet. This time we’ve bubble-wrapped the servers because they’re in for another beating.
Every case contains the same five Grand Cru Bordeauxs. More info on them below, but they're among our bestselling wines of all-time.
Then there’s the added excitement of seeing if you have won the world-beater lucky wine you will receive as your sixth.
The sixth wine is the wildcard and could be either of these:
Château Margaux 1996 worth $2,000 (1 in 100 chance)
Château Hauts de Granget Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2018 worth $90 (at a minimum!)
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 Margaux is to go out and buy one for yourself. If you, like me, don’t have $2,000 handy, this is 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 these Bordeaux icons:

2x Chateau Galius Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2019
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
Let’s just say upfront, we’ve stocked up on this wine. In mofo history, we have never seen a wine fly out the door quite like this one. No exaggeration, never before has a wine been as loved by the mofo community.
This Grand Cru Saint-Emilion is rich and ripe and at a magical point in its life, drinking very, very well. It’s a stunning example of how Bordeaux terroir shines through the merlot grape in all its generosity and finesse, with a touch of cab franc (15%) adding fresh notes to all that fruit. Expect an abundance of plums, vanilla and milk chocolate. Forest floor and herbal undergrowth are hidden softly underneath - sage and oregano, tobacco leaf. Spice ekes in around my edges, with broad, silky tannin riding on a backbone of bright acidity and keen structure. You can rest assured that you are going to be drinking the top-of-the-top of Bordeaux here.

1x Château Hauts de Granget Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2018
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
We’re getting pretty good at finding exceptional Bordeaux at unbelievable pricing. Humble, I know. But sometimes it’s good to give yourself a little pat on the back. We think we earned it with this one. It’s Saint-Emilion Grand Cru composed of 85% merlot and 15% cab franc that’s hitting all the right notes. And we’re not the only ones that feel that way. A score of 4.2 on Vivino and 96 points with a gold medal from the Decanter World Wine Awards seem to back up our assessment. The Decanter review below goes into a bit more detail for those remaining unconvinced.

2x Château le Loup Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2020
Red — Merlot Blend
Bordeaux — France
If you’re the kind of wine buyer looking for the best wine at the best price, look no further. Saint-Émilion grand cru rarely ever starts at a price like this. Even we did a double take! With a super high average score among wine-loving Vivino users, it’s a ‘get it while it’s hot’ limited red. A classic right-bank blend of merlot and cabernet franc, expect an inky red in your glass. Plums and dark cherries intertwine with cedar, expanding with a richness that tapers to a classic finish. There is also an edge of earthy notes here, only found in wonderfully earnest Bordeaux. French oak and gravelly tannins, it has it all to keep you wanting more. Perfect to cellar, yet, even better to drink, after all, people say life is short. While we are here we may as well sip grand cru, live long and prosper. Château le Loup Saint-Émilion grand cru, we love you.

The Wild Card Wines
Wild Card Wine #1
Château Margaux 1996
Bordeaux (First Growth), France
100pts Robert Parker / 100pts Decanter
"A strong contender for wine of the vintage. It offers everything you desire from this First Growth. It is blessed with breathtaking delineation and freshness on the nose, understated at first and then blossoming with mineral-infused black fruit, hints of blueberry, crushed stone and violet. The palate is perfectly balanced with filigree tannin, perfect acidity, a wine where everything seems to be in its right place. Blackberry, crushed stone at the front of the mouth, just a touch of spice towards the finish that shows supreme control. This is a Margaux that seems to light up the senses. It was outstanding in its youth...something that has not changed one bit over the intervening two decades. This may well turn out to be the Left Bank pinnacle of the 1990s."
