In June 2009 Robert Parker had a review tasting of some of the top Australian wines from older vintages and the Greenock Creek wines were outstanding:-
"Greenock Creek has always been one of my favorite Barossa wineries...great proprietors,tiny yields,old vines,and a hands-off style of winemaking.Of all the flights tasted,these stood out as being the most riveting of the entire tasting.
The Shiraz cuvees were off the charts...every one still young and not close to maturity.These are all high octane wines (14.5-16% alcohol),but any evidence of wood is completely buried under the aromatic complexity and richness.
The 1996 Seven Acre Shiraz possesses an opaque purple color as well as a beautiful nose of sweet blackberries,licorice,flowers,a massive mouthfeel and greater definition and elegance than I remember it in its exhuberant,fruit-bomb,youthful stage.Still a very young wine,even more massive than the 1995,it is incredibly promising".
