Reviews of 2004 Greenock Creek Shiraz Seven Acre Syrah
95 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate January 2007 The 2004 Shiraz “Seven Acres was also aged for 28 months in used American oak. Inky purple-colored, it offers up an enticing perfume of smoke, earth, mineral, licorice, blueberry, and blackberry. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, and intensely flavored, it offers just slightly less complexity than its siblings, but at this level, and in this context, that is a minor quibble. So rich that it can be enjoyed now, it will nevertheless evolve for several years and drink well through 2020.
Greenock Creek Vineyard and Cellars, owned by Michael and Annabelle Waugh, is one of the Barossa’s benchmark wineries. Start with a great terroir, add in old vine material, and meticulous winemaking and the results are usually extraordinary.

About 2004 Greenock Creek Shiraz Seven Acre Syrah
About the Winery Greenock Creek
Greenock Creek Wines is situated at Seppeltsfield in the rolling hills
between the hamlets of Greenock and Marananga, on the western edge of
the Barossa Valley. The winery's first release was in 1988, when it
sold a 1986 Shiraz and a 1988 Chardonnay from its tiny cellar door
situated beneath the Waugh's 150 year old stone cottage. Since then the
winery has planted, grafted or acquired more vines, and now specialises
in premium red wine production. Only grapes grown on the property are
used, making it truly an estate winery. The range of wines includes
five Shiraz, two Cabernet Sauvignons and a Grenache, all processed at
the winery on the Waugh’s Roennfeldt Road property. The wines are
released each year in early September and are sold through cellar door,
mail order, a selected number of retail outlets in Australia and a
small quantity via export. The wines are available from the cellar door
from the release date until sold out, and a visit to the winery will be
a highlight of any visit to the Barossa Valley.
