1989 remains memorable. The precocity in maturation and the richness of the grapes were exceptional.
A very hot and sunny month of May ensured a rapid development of vegetation.
The first flowers were notified around May 20th in the most precocious varieties and situations.
Just like the first summer-months, September was hot, sunny and dry. These extremely favourable terms allowed complete ripening in excellent conditions, a regular picking and no excessive rush.
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
