    Brooding aromas of blackberry, cherry, prune, brandied fruits and macerated plum, layered with spice, dried citrus rind and earthy notes. The palate shows fine, chocolatey tannins and a crème de cassis–like intensity, finishing rich and persistent.

    Award:
    Greenock Creek is the home of the world famous Roennfeldt Road Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, both of which have achieved the much sought after Robert Parker 100 Points.

    The 2005 Apricot Block Shiraz received the same upbringing as the Alice’s and is a similar glass-coating, opaque purple. An enticing perfume of cedar, scorched earth, pepper, violets, bacon, and blueberry leaps from the glass. A bit more restrained (a mere 15.0% alcohol) than its siblings, it is nevertheless a silky, layered, intensely flavored Shiraz with gobs of fruit and a 60-second finish. It should provide much pleasure from 2012 to 2025. 95 points Dr Jay Miller - Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate
