Little Creek may not be the steepest of our sites, but the design of the site makes it almost impossible to drive on in the wet. Sadly the 2023 vintage, which was extremely wet and cold, meant that disease pressure
was high in the region, and sadly Little Creek bore the most damage from mildew. Only two barrels of wine were made but what barrels they were! Its powerful, its aromatic, and its an absolute pleasure to
drink and toast to a challenging year from a special site. 100% destemmed open top fermentation for two weeks before basket pressing to two neutral French oak barrels for 10 months, then racked to tank for three and bottled. - Gareth Belton, Winemaker.
