Description

Robert Parker has had a more recent tasting (in June 2009) of top older Australian wines and his comments on the Greenock Creek winery and Creek Block 1997 Shiraz are as follows:-

This has always been one of my favorite Australian wineries...great proprietors,tiny yields,old vines,and a hands-off style of winemaking.Of all the flights we tasted Greenock Creek stood out as the most riveting wines of the entire tasting.
Blackberry and blueberry liqueur,graphite,acacia flowers,and pepper are all present in the 1997 Shiraz Creek Block.This wine is even younger than its sibling,the 1997 Seven Acres Shiraz.Interestingly,the latter wine is from 7 to 10-year-old vines and the Creek Block is from 60+ year-old Shiraz vines.Another sensational effort,the 1997 Creek Block is still too young to appreciate,but it has an incredible future ahead of it.
(94+ Points).
