2022 Greenock Creek Apricot Block Shiraz 750ml

Critic tasting note: (2022 vintage) "This stunning 2022 single vineyard Marananga Shiraz is a sophisticated and enthralling Shiraz from the Greenock Creek stable although a much more elegant package. Beautiful vibrancy and energy of fruit with layers of new leather, violets and musky plum with some seriously fine oak in the mix. Punchy flavours, in a slightly riper expression but the shape is what I love most – seamless and pure with a firm stream of tannins. A triumph." - 95/100, Winepilot Alc. 15.5% Other Reviews…. Deep magenta/purple. As per the estate style, off-the-charts fruit purity here. Doris plum, dark cherry and blueberry fruits of considerable concentration and ripeness. Layers of baking spices, dark chocolate, crème de cassis, vanilla bean, cedar, pipe tobacco, dried citrus, quince paste, brandied fruits and nutty oak. Full bodied with fine, cascading tannins and a real sense of latent power. 95 Points Dave Brookes – James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion
