Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 - Black Market Deal #33764

This stunning cabernet has seen a couple of leap years in its time. And now it’s got more than a few stories to tell. In its absolute prime, it’s looking maj...

Seems to be this one. Haven't tried it. But at least it gives a start for some further research. Vivino reviews are positive.

Will Taylor Wines Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Halliday score lines up, Malbec 14%, and under cork. $40 from store, but hey it is vinomofo so wont be perfectly accurate.

Tried one of these tonight, not a bad Coonawarra at all. Pitty it's sold out or I would have grabbed some more. 2009 but still needs a good decant to open up.

Yeah, we were lucky enough to grab a second 6-pack after trying the first bottle. AusPost seems to be having a few issues with delivery though - it's original ETA was last Friday and it's still not here.

Shiraz 2017 – Black Market Deal #30485

mof_s received previous vintages of this Heathcote heavyweight very well indeed. The 95+ Halliday ratings, or the dusting of gold medals were helpful, I’m su...

I thought this might have been Star Lane but I might be wrong

The french Oak, blackberries and viollets definitely line up. I thought the Handpicked Heathcote Shiraz usually $70? The below link seems to be the previous vintage, the profile is exactly the same. Star Lane is Beechworth so not Star Lane

BLACK MARKET Shiraz 2016

This shiraz comes from a producer really kicking some goals in Heathcote and, honestly, is crazy value on the Black Market. You’re looking at dark berry flav...

After some more searching i am pretty confident it will be Galli Estate Lorenzo 2017. Found a match to the link above from the .sg site Galli Estate Lorenzo Shiraz 2016. The 2017 scored 93 JH (Creber) also link to 2016 Heathcote Lorenzo Shiraz – Galli Estate Winery | Heatcote Sunbury Wine Region matches descriptives, even the '5 years plan' thing

Shiraz 2014 – Black Market Deal #33739

They’re not trying to reinvent the wheel with this one. It’s unmistakably classic South Aussie shiraz, made well. What it lacks in new-fangled winemaking voo...

Pretty confident the below is Monterra 2017 Reserve Fleurieu Cabernet Sauvignon.. Any thoughts?

Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 – Black Market Deal #33953

I think you are correct.
But no thoughts on the wine as I seldom buy Cabernet these days.
CWSA = China Wine & Spirits Awards if anyone didn't already know.

It's actually $240/6 ex-winery, not $50, the listing in wine-searcher at $50 per single bottle -> 404, a lack of coordination with VM showing.
 
I’ve unsubscribed from all VM comms, I got sick of the florid descriptions for EVERY wine, some I bought that didn’t live up to the excessive praise. Might give it a break for a while.

I've had one order this year, Rolf Binder Heysen Shiraz 2015 recently at a very sharp price. I just ignore the VM hype and do my own research, never buy a mystery wine unless I know what it is, which I usually do soon after the email arrives.
 
That's my modus operandi too RB, I think it goes all the way back to having some Rosemount "Little Berries" palmed off on me and other unsuspecting AFF punters as a BM deal (after some particularly fanciful descriptions on their behalf) that convinced me to do my due diligence... Having said that I am finishing off the evening with a glass of the Cosmos Yarra Valley Shiraz 2016 Reserve courtesy of VM and it is an exceedingly nice drop which has somewhat redeemed them in my eyes ;)

I almost bought that a couple of times, good to know there are some good wines still. I ended up buying the Monterra, hasn't arrived yet though..
