Greenock Creek was established in 1978, Greenock Creek is a boutique Barossa Valley winery located in Seppeltsfield, South Australia with a production level of only 2,500 cases per year. Owned by Michael and Annabel Waugh, Greenock Creek wines are fashioned from old, low-yielding vineyards and have accumulated quite a reputation.

Tasting Note: "The 2004 Shiraz "Creek Block" is near otherworldly. It was sourced from a 66-year-old vineyard with yields of 1.0 tons per acre and aged for 28 months in used American oak. It delivers a super-fragrant nose of smoked meat, bacon, violets, an earthy/truffle element, blackberry and blueberry muffin. This leads to a full-bodied, voluptuous wine with gobs of spicy, complex blue and black fruit flavors, great balance, and a finish that j just won't quit. This loaded wine can be enjoyed now but will drink well for another 15-20 years." The Wine Advocate #173 Oct 2007 rated 99/100 points
