The Willows Vineyard lies in the Light Pass sub-region of the Barossa Valley, where the Scholz family has tended vines for seven generations, the origin of the G7 (Generation Seven) name. Young winemaker Jack Scholz has taken this wine in a new direction while working the family's established Light Pass holdings on the district's red-brown loam over clay. The site is farmed for expressive, structured Shiraz with lifted perfume and freshness rather than sheer power. Specific 2023 growing-season conditions for the vineyard are not confirmed and should be checked against the winery's notes; a contaminated field description in the source data (referencing a Stonewell Road vineyard) has been disregarded.

The G7 emphasises fruit definition and energy: a generous proportion of whole berries is included in the ferment to amplify the wine's lifted violet perfume and raspberry-over-blackberry character, while retaining a firm mid-palate structure and bright acid line, as described by Decanter, which awarded 96 points. The wine is matured in French oak, with a modest new-oak component, so that flavours run long and true and finish with gentle mineral tannins built for cellaring. Exact whole-bunch versus destemmed split, barrel regime and time in oak for the 2023 vintage are not confirmed; figures in the source data belong to a different wine and should be verified against the technical sheet.
