[SOLD-OUT] Greenock Creek Roennfeldt Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

96+++ POINTS - PHILLIP WHITE!  

 

“It reeks of musk, and ozone-sweet, electric violets and lavender. Its great oak adds fresh ginger and lemon. It has a smell reminiscent of starched linen. It smells of fresh blackberry conserve, with intact berries still surviving in the mush. It has beguiling pithy wisps of sliced dried apple. Drink it. It makes the tongue weep. It is incredible in its density and complexity, and yet it exudes the blithe presumption of youth in every aspect. Its tannins are soft: those dried apple and lemon pith textures are about as gravelly as it gets. It is fresh, and supple, and yet it proudly shows a gunmetal glint, a flash of dagger in the dark. It has the taste of dagger, too, in its swarfy, metallic tail. But ten minutes after I swallow it I feel that my tongue is a puncheon of crème de cassis, and leading out the cellar door there’s a trickle of it which I must follow. There’s a great deal going on in here. Perhaps the best Roennfeldt Cabernet yet.” - Phillip White
