Description / Reviews
"The vines were planted on hard clays mixed with deep alluvial loam. Vine age gives a density to the wine via small bunches and a strong but velvety tannin structure. Deep crimson. Dark berry, black olive, sandalwood aromas. Impressively concentrated dark berry espresso, sandalwood flavours and underlying cedar tannins. Finishes chocolatey and crisp with aniseed/ liquorice notes." - Greenock Creek, Winemaker
"An incredibly proportioned shiraz sourced from 120-year-old vines on the Greenock Creek estate in western Barossa. I'm always amazed at the balance Greenock Creek achieve in these wines. Now, this is full-bodied to be sure, but the line and flow shows a distinct elegance and grace, tannins fine and chewy, the fruit pure and a mix of red and dark tones studded with spice, floral facets and roasting meats. Jeez Louise ... very nicely done." - 97 Points, Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion
