Creekside Estate Winery
Our first Reserve Sauvignon Blanc harvested from our Estate Vineyard in the Creek Shores appellation, this vineyard shows off the best fruit of the vintage. In the last week of September 2007, 53% of the grapes we harvested from the ‘Short Block” (older vines) and the remaining 47% from the ‘Long Block” on the eastern end of the vineyard. The juice was 100% oak barrel fermented with a variety of yeast strains and aged for a further 10 months. The 100% French barrel composition consisted of 6 new barrels, 9 one year old and, 2 barrels two years old. Oak and yeast selection as well as ageing on lees for 11 months, were all employed for the purpose of highlighting the intense tropical character found in the grapes from this fantastic vintage. Bottled September 2008.
