Overview
A mature expression of one of Greenock Creek’s distinctive single-vineyard Shiraz wines, the 1999 Seven Acre combines the concentration and richness associated with the producer’s classic Barossa style with more than two decades of bottle development. Sourced from vines that were 13 years old at the time of the vintage, this is a compelling cellar-aged release for collectors of traditional, powerful Barossa Shiraz.
Vineyard & Winemaking
The Seven Acre Shiraz was produced from 13-year-old vines in the Barossa Valley. According to Robert Parker’s contemporary review, the 1999 vintage was matured for 28 months in a combination of new and older American oak.
Producer Tasting Notes
Greenock Creek
“This one’s more dense and typically GC than the cheeky cabernet and Apricot Block reds. In a sense, it’s more like the reedy old Creek Block to sniff, because of its muddy, swampy base tones. Those aside, it’s all ripe red berries of myriad facets, in a really rich fruitcake bouquet, with well-cooked spice and rind. In wicked juxtaposition, shots of Parade Gloss boot polish bounce neatly off a rich whiff of Chanel Number 5. The palate’s typical Greenock Creek, full, soft, silky and unctuous, but with really good natural-looking acidity as well as the usual extremely fine-grained tannin. The flavours show the increasing maturity of the Seven Acre vines; this is more complex wine than this vineyard has previously given us. At first, the acidity seems overt, but with time it slides beneath the surface of the usual Holy Syrup, only to reappear in the puckery, gum-sucking aftertaste.”
Critic Reviews
94 Points — Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
“Layers of gorgeous fruit, voluptuousness, density, great purity, and a finish that lasts nearly 40 seconds.”
