This Black Market WA Shiraz is Bellarmine Shiraz 2011, I'm pretty sure. 5 red star producer, and WA so don't let the 2011 vintage put you off. If you've got any pennies left over after last weekend! Another good deal from the Black Market at $10.50/bottle down from $35.
93 points from Mr Halliday.

In the Bellamine description it said it got 95 Points James Halliday? And vinomofo says 93 points?
Am I reading correctly?
Edit: Bellamine also says 2011 Shiraz 93 points James Halliday!
It is Bellamine Shiraz 2011
It was offered before and I bought a case, definitely Bellarmine Pemberton Shiraz.
The bottle I tried was showing some "spritz" (fizziness on the tongue usually from secondary fermentation after bottling). It dissipated a bit after a while, but not a pleasant wine for me. It hasn't had a lot of love on my Forum from those that bought it.
I can't be bothered trying a second bottle, I asked to send it back for a refund today.
Well, not a good review from redbigot, so maybe steer clear of this one!
I have also figured out the 2012 McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon, though with 90 points from Halliday you might not rush to buy this one either, unless you want to test Vinomofo's generous paid returns policy! Pretty sure it is Haselgrove 'Protector', you can see Halliday review here http://www.haselgrove.com.au/wine-critic-reviews/ and more on the order page.
Yes, good match to the Haselgrove Protector.
