Greenock Creek Apricot Block Shiraz 2004 750mL

Another example of young vines making profound wines.  Spending 26-28 months in old American oak barrels and small foudres (hogsheads), these wines are bottled unfiltered, and exhibits the intense extract, and style unique to Australia.  Made from ultra ripe fruit, they show purity of the Shiraz grape, rarely seen, without being monolithic or heavy.
