Greenock 2016 

Shiraz-Grenache (Barossa Valley)

Though looking as dark and forbidding as a black hole, this wine is boisterous in aromas of eucalyptus, blackberry and maple syrup. A hulk on the palate in both weight and alcohol, there is nonetheless plenty of supporting vibrancy here. It’s lush, mouthcoating and lightly grippy. Showing some advancing flavors of cigar box and truffles, it is delicious now but should develop further to benefit. Drink now–2023.
