Score 93/100 · Drink 2007-2017, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Oct 2007
The 2005 Grenache “Cornerstone” was sourced from 62-year-old vines and aged in a mix of new and used French oak. It is dark ruby-colored with a nearly exotic perfume of smoke, Asian spices, rhubarb, and black cherry. Sweet and seamless on the palate, it is intense, full-flavored, pure, and very long. Drink it now and over the next 10 years. Greenock Creek Vineyard and Cellars, owned by Michael and Annabelle Waugh, is one of the Barossa’s benchmark wineries. Start with a great terroir, add in old vine material, and meticulous winemaking and the results are usually extraordinary. Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (805) 278-9095
