Initially their plan was to sell these grapes to the big wine producers but after a few vintages, the desire to see the fruits of their labour turned into their own wine, was just too great for them to resist. In 1998 they held onto a small selection of their fruits and sent it to the Cape Jaffa Winery to be made into wine. Morambro Creek was born, the name coming from the creek that meanders through the property.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Rich, opulent reds from Padthaway that will repay a short period of cellar aging.”\u003cbr\u003e- \u003cu\u003eAnthony Dias' blue pocket guide to wine 2006\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eMorambro Creek \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey farm 420 acres, separated into two plots each of 210 acres, about 7-8 kilometers apart.

The grapes varieties cultivated here are Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Morambro Creek, their sole objective is to produce the best wines possible from their unique vineyard site. Planted on own rootstock and located in the Padthaway valley which is comprised of rich Terra Rosa soils their estate vineyard benefits from excellent sun exposure producing grapes of optimum flavor, color and tannin development. The warm summer days are moderated each evening by coastal winds that cool the vines and result in a longer ripening period. This extended period allows for the grape tannins and seed to fully ripen prior to being harvested, thus creating wines that are rich and supple on the palate.\u003cbr\u003eTheir pursuit of great wine can also be seen in the meticulous management of their vineyard. They strive for low crop yields and small grape bunches of intense flavor, and whilst they employ the latest technology in the vineyard to help them achieve vine balance and reduced vigor, they harvest when the fruit reaches full flavor development.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"morambro-creek-cabernet-2016","title":"Morambro Creek Cabernet 2016","description":"\u003cp\u003eSALEMorambro Creek Cabernet is 100 percent Cabernet Deep purple in .

The nose feels Christmasy: baking spices laced with purple beets, dried mint and red berries. In the mouth it's ripe and generous, and there's a fair bit of oak showing but all is held at bay by taut, fine-grained tannins. Drink through 2025.- Wine Enthusiast (January 2020), 90 Layers of mint, tobacco and cassis unfold on the nose of the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon. Mature and ready to drink, this medium to full-bodied wine is a fine example of Padthaway's (and the larger Limestone Coast region's) potential for Bordeaux varieties. Silky, savory and dry, it displays fine lines despite its heft, with bright acids and a lingering finish. - Joe Czerwinski- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Issue 253, February 2021), 90 Bright ruby.

Vintage Overview 2013 was a very good season with predominantly mild, dry days. Yields were generally low and this did result in some excellent parcels of fruit being harvested. Vine-balance was carefully monitored, resulting in fruit that demonstrates the vibrancy and fruit-derived characters that we strive for in our wines. By all accounts it was a textbook vintage.
