“$65 for this — worth it?”

You don’t need to know the producer. You don’t need to know the region. Just ask Paco.

Mayer “Bloody Hill” Rouge 2023

$65 — worth it? 👀

🦙 Paco’s Verdict

Fair price, but not a steal.

Fun Yarra Valley red with plenty of charm, but not particularly special at this price.

If it were my money? I’d grab it if you’re curious. Otherwise, save the $30 and buy something with more to say.
