95 / 100"The 2005 Roennfeldt Road Cabernet Sauvignon is very deep garnet-purple colored, giving intense earthy aromas of damp hummus and iron ore over crushed black currants, ripe blueberries, Mediterranean herbs, cloves, cardamom, hung meat, charred planks and cedar. Medium-bodied, it’s very crisp and tight knit with firm fine tannins, layers of earth, cassis and savory flavors, and a very long finish."

Tasting Notes
Stated in its entirety, the name ‘Greenock Creek Vineyard & Cellars’ neatly captures our winemaking masterplan which steadfastly adheres to the idea of ‘vineyard first, winery second’. Through each wine we aim to capture and promote the influence of subtle nuances inherent in the landscape of our vineyards at Seppeltsfield, Marananga and Moppa, located along the Barossa Valley’s western edge. The undulating profile of these sites, strewn with ancient stone, serves as a perfect palate of richly diverse micro terroirs, nourishing our desire to showcase multiple expressions of our distinctive wine style. Dry growing conditions yield small berried fruit of deep colour, abundant flavour, great structure and length, the hallmark characteristics of every Greenock Creek wine.
