About the Winery

The grapes for this wine are from the vineyard at the front of our basement entryway situated on Radford Road at Seppeltsfield, near Greenock, and were planted in 1989. The vines crop at 1.5 to 2.0 tons every acre of land and when picked are kept separate to create a solitary domain wine. Likewise with all our grapes they are picked on phenological readiness and flavour at a baume range of 14 to 16º. This baume now and then delivers a characteristically occurring high liquor, in spite of the fact that this will rely upon occasional conditions.
The grapes are aged in substantial, shallow open fermenters, pumped over, chilled and squeezed through a basket press. The free run and pressings are kept separate through development and mixed back together one week prior to packaging. The wine is racked into barrel to experience regular MLF. The oak is all French shaved out prepared second-hand hogsheads, with the better barrels being utilized for the pressings. The wine is left to develop in barrels for an aggregate of 27 months and is generally not sifted or fined before packaging.

About the wine

Medium to profound garnet-purple in color, Greenock Creek's 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon gives fragrances of new black currants and red plums with subtleties of Mediterranean herbs, pencil shavings, underbrush and black pepper. Medium bodied and extremely fresh in the mouth, it offers sufficiently just energetic, succulent Cabernet fruit with a medium to firm level of chewy tannins and a long wrap up.
