I cannot comment for all of them, but I have had Martins Vineyard Limited McLaren Vale Shiraz 2016 (RRP $150.00)
It was barely drinkable to be perfectly honest, I would admit that I prefer more fuller bodied wines - but this one lacked the body and also lacked any finesse I thought. To my taste it was too bland and I could not even taste any elegance.

Curtis Limited Series McLaren Vale Shiraz 2016 (RRP $100.00) was ok and it is always sold at around $20-$25 as "secret deals". Nice MV shiraz but should not be priced nowhere near its RRP. IMHO only

Jeanneret Cabernet Shiraz 2017 (RRP $25.00) was ok but I much prefer Jeaneret Rank and File Shiraz that sells for $20 at Nicks

I cannot remember others but I would say for $20 a bottle it is an ok of a deal if that is your budget. I probably would look elsewhere.

WB Black Label 2012 for $75 in the realms of good price? Not as good as the DM price error (mostly 2015s/16s from memory).

Thanks for this! Been meaning to grab some Struie for a while, after a Torbreck tasting. At ~$30 it feels like a bargain.
Haven’t seen Torbreck (outside of maybe Woodcutters) on sale very often.

Grabbed a couple of the 2010 Black Label too. Can’t go wrong!
 
Question to the hive - if I were to go for it, which should I go for?

Wynn's black label cab sauv vertical from the winery 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018x2 for $192
OR the 2015 vintage x6 for $180 from Winestar.

Variety or the known good vintage?
