Morambro Creek

Morambro Creek wines is a family owned and operated business with wine produced from fruit grown on the Bryson family property in the premium grape-growing area of Padthaway – the gateway to the Limestone Coast region of South Australia

The vineyard currently has 125 hectares under vine with further expansion occurring this year. The latest vineyard practices are followed, no insecticides are used and with good natural climatic conditions and low yields the vineyard consistently produces excellent fruit quality. The region enjoys a Mediterranean climate which provides optimum ripening conditions enhancing the full flavours of the berries.

The very best parcels of fruit are carefully selected throughout the vineyard and utilized in the Morambro Creek label. The grapes are left on the vine until the berries have achieved maximum depth of colour and flavour. Open tank fermenters are used in the fermentation process (Shiraz & Cabernet Sauvignon varieties) which allows for hand plunging of the cap (skins) as well as pumping over. This is done two to three times a day for an extended period to extract maximum colour and flavour from the skins. The wine is fermented and matured in new and aged French and American oak barrels. Great attention to detail with the integration of oak and fruit flavours helps produce classic wine styles.

In 2004 they introduced a 'second label' - Jip Jip Rocks. This wine has already won many awards and admirers.
