Your math is almost perfect... perhaps +/- a couple of % points depending on what your final bill is... 14% can be a little low if you buy a good number of bottles as at the upper limit the VAT refund is a little better as you 'amortize' the fixed fees in a more efficient manner.
Please email/PM me if you are in the market for this wine..... aside from the Estiba there are various other wines in this same bracket that I would suggest you consider.
