Maryhill wines are already a good value at retail price, so the Casemates deal makes this a very attractive offer. I have also had a previous vintage (2012) and found it to be a solid red blend.
I just lit up Illinois. @InFrom same here I bought the wine.woot offering and each time we opened a bottle with friends, they were pleased, as were we. If the 2014 is similar to 2013, this is a very intriguing wine and truly enjoyable. At this price, it is a steal and an autobuy.
Had the 2013 from Woot as well. No notes but I do remember thinking the wine represented very good value. No reason to not buy this vintage as well in my opinion.

@rlmanzo Sorry…I forget we’re not all from Washington…ha ha! As a resident, if you do not know about the quality of Maryhill wines…you probably don’t like wine in the first place. Personally, I have been drinking Maryhill wines since the winery opened as I lived right down the road. I have never had a bad Maryhill wine (unless you count the one I left in the backseat of my car on a really hot summer day…but I drank that anyway.)
Tasting notes on the 2014 are per the description above but I would also add a bit of sour cherry/pomegranate, medium bodied with a smooth finish leaving traces of slight smoke, espresso, and cedar. I had cases of the last two vintages, no notes, but they’re all gone! As an everyday drinker, it goes quickly in our house…especially if guests are involved; everyone raves about it!
Value is tremendous at this price point. One of our local grocery stores has it on sale now direct from the winery for $9.99/bottle…they can’t keep it stocked.
Perfect food wine…from burgers and pizza to a nice cut of meat on the bbq, you can’t go wrong.
Hope that was more helpful than my original two liner!
@Allieroon@rlmanzo I’m jealous of your proximity to Maryhill!
I couldn’t say it better myself! Maryhill is a quality winery, in both destination for a visit, and their products. This is from their value side of their repertoire, but no slouch of an offering by any means. Instantly in for a case.
How much more are you saving by buying a full case?

2014 Maryhill Winemaker’s Red - $20 = 16.66%

Good but drink within two years. I like this winery and have even visited. Nonetheless, I had some 2013 Winemakers Red from woot that I just opened and two of them had turned. I’ll admit storage was sub-optimal.
@wistungsten I ordered a case of the 2013 from woot. Had one last week, first one in awhile, it was fizzy, off, bad. One bottle left, sounds like a theme.
@kaolis@wistungsten Yeah, looking at my CT notes from the 2013 bottle I opened not long ago, the wine was fine, with a slight fizz. So drink up!
N.B. My storage was optimal, if one can call dwelling for close to a year in a drawer of my office file cabinet optimal.
Hi, tried our first bottle last night. It was ok but we had some round crystallized goodies in the bottle that weren’t that appealing. Anyone else had any issues?
@ellepatter@jwhetzel
Tartrate crystals. It just means that the wine wasn’t cold-stabilized, IIRC. They are harmless and shouldn’t affect the taste of the wine.
just wondering if anyone else has had any problems with the corks. i bought a case and i just opened bottle #5 and every one of them has given me issues. i get them out a third at a time and even had to throw a bottle away because the cork broke into pieces and fell into the bottle.
@rockme513
Get yourself one of these and you’ll never have to throw a bottle away for that reason again. You will also be able to enjoy bottles with sediment without having to decant, which is mostly why I use it.
@JOATMON@rockme513
Haha, yes I have given away about a dozen of them and have another dozen on hand. Just re-stocked recently. I have even rubber-banded them to bottles I gave as gifts that I expected would have some sediment. (The Madeira was great too, what a treat!)

I was a member of this winery for years. This wine is good value as an every day drinker. No notes, but I’m likely in for a case at this price.

I just wanted to verify no shipping to MO? Maryhill’s website says they can ship to MO. Thanks!
@chemvictim ditto for CT. I didn’t go through the full check-out process but it appears to be accepting my address.
@chemvictim Also would like a confirmation on MO as I am interested
@chemvictim @normanl0 @winer We’re checking with the winery, since this is the list they sent us. Will hopefully have an answer soon!
@chemvictim @normanl0 @winer Unfortunately Maryhill confirms that unfortunately MO and CT are not on the table at present.
@chemvictim @normanl0 @ThomasF That’s a bummer but thank you for verifying

Wine.woot sold a 6-pack of the 2013 vintage last September, for $60. I’ve tried one, it was enjoyable. Any lab rats? I’d love to see a compare/contrast.
First no MD in a while. If MD had any interest let me know I’ll see if I can get it to PA
I’ll grab a case. Sounds like a solid red blend.
/giphy relaxing-voiceless-thing

Getting low on daily drinkers, in for a case.

@wistungsten Similar story here. I opened my last bottle last week and it was fizzy. Otherwise I enjoyed the other 5 bottles.

Anyone around NYC want to split a case? I’d take six.

@chipgreen @rockme513 Listen to him. He actually gave me one when I poured a madeira at one of the RPM tours, and it is great!
@rockme513
I used an Ah So puller and the cork came out just fine.
@JOATMON @rockme513
Haha, yes I have given away about a dozen of them and have another dozen on hand. Just re-stocked recently. I have even rubber-banded them to bottles I gave as gifts that I expected would have some sediment. (The Madeira was great too, what a treat!)
