Branson Coach House Greenock Block Shiraz 2003
The Greenock Block Shiraz is Branson Coach House’s second label single vineyard Shiraz grown from the Greenock vineyard. Wine Advocate The 2003 Shiraz Greenock Block is a big, dense plum/purple-colored, full-bodied, powerful wine offering notions of figs, blackberries, licorice, and sweet oak. With a multi-layered mouthfeel as well as a tremendous finish revealing sweet tannin, it is a macho-styled Australian red to consume over the next 12-15 years. This is an impressive successor to Branson Coach House’s equally exciting 2002. Score: 93. —Robert Parker, October 2005.Wine Spectator Ripe, velvety and generous with its black cherry, black pepper, dried tomato and licorice flavors, a counterpoint of spicy, smoky oak adding an extra layer without taking over. Has depth and persistence, excellent balance (despite some heat from alcohol) and real class. Best from 2007 through 2015. 650 cases made. Score: 91. —Harvey Steiman, August 31, 2006. |
