Scratching my head over this one Shiraz 2017 – Black Market Deal #34341 best match I can find is: Mr. Riggs Wine Co. | 2017 McLaren Vale Shiraz which is $40 member's price and $43.99 at MWG I'm probably wrong but still curious if someone else can crack it....

Under cork.
Based on CWSA 2019 results, could be: Clarence Hill Shiraz 2012 - Nick Haselgrove Wines South Australia (says 2012 in url, actually 2017)

Clarence Hill Red Label McLaren Vale Shiraz Nick Haselgrove Wines 2017 AU Red Wine double gold

Yes, it's Ok at this price, but not to rave about. I'm happy to keep this one.
It came fourth in a set of 6, but a tough set, Gemtree Ernest Allan 2018, Mr Riggs 2017 and Mr Riggs Burnt Block 2017 ahead of it and Thistledown Bachelors Block 2017 and Allegiance Artisan McLaren Vale Shiraz 2017 after it, so not disgraced at all, Bachelors Block at $35 from VM, seemed a little forward for it's age, Artisan quite poor really.

I bought the 2014/2015, bought the 2016 and sent it back, didn't buy the 2017.

I got the 2017 from VM. It’s ok but nothing special, maybe will improve with time, maybe not. In general there are better options at this (discounted) price range.

Thanks RB and others, it's good to have the task force tracking down this one, I'll probably give it a pass during this time of abundance....

PRE-ARRIVAL: Pinot Noir 2015 – Black Market Deal #33951

It’s amazing what six years of waiting will do to a wine. I tried this vintage a couple of years ago. It was fruitier, plumper - good, but not stunning, I’ll...

Pre-arrival offer, $29.90 in 6-packs.
Seems to be Giesen Clayvin.
The 2014 and 2016 vintages of Giesen Clayvin PN are on The Sippery for $53pb in 6-packs.
The 2015 vintage has some very positive reviews.
They offered the 2013 previously @ $45pb, I sent that one back, but it was apparently the lowest rated vintage in 2012-2016, not horrid, but not worth the $45, at least they've found the right price this time.

What's the 2016 Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon?

Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 – Black Market Deal #32821

Unmistakably Coonawarra cabernet that doesn’t cost the earth. It doesn’t need a decade in the cellar either. Softly but firmly structured, it’s easy and enjo...

Just so you know this is was a curve ball.
It ended up being a Coonawarra Cab Sav made in Hunter Valley.

Pinot Noir 2014 – Black Market Deal #34426

Perfectly aged single vineyard pinot noir , what a delight! A bit darker and a bit more brooding than your average Yarra strawberries-and-stems number, ther...
