From Greenock Creek’s Seven Acre block in Barossa Valley, this 2021 Shiraz is a bold, full-bodied red with intense dark fruit and spicy oak. It shows depth, power, and aging potential, with firm tannins and a long, persistent finish. Pairs well with roasted lamb, ribeye, or slow-cooked game; decant for immediate enjoyment or cellar for several years.
