Wine Description:
Greenock Creek Cabernet Sauvignon is a red wine produced by Greenock Creek Vineyard and Cellars, located in the Barossa Valley appellation of South Australia. The vineyard features old vines that are dry-farmed and hand-harvested, resulting in low yields and concentrated flavors. The winemaking process involves long-term aging in French oak barrels for nuanced flavor. The wine is known for its full-bodied and complex style, with flavors of blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark chocolate, along with hints of tobacco and spice. It is a highly sought-after example of Cabernet Sauvignon from the Barossa Valley.
Pros:
  • Focused style with a precise definition of fruit that is elegant for a wine with such a full body.

Cons:

Wine Expert Note:

Greenock Creek Cabernet Sauvignon has an opaque purple color and a nose featuring a ripe expression of blackcurrant and mint. The palate is very opulent with enriching alcohol balanced by refreshing acidity and polished, dense tannins. The long finish evolves to show baking spice nuance from the considerate use of oak during winemaking. Serve with hearty dishes. Drink over the next 10 years.
