Summary: For a small winemaker, Woods Crampton has achieved a lot in a small amount of time. Part of the Barossa new wave, Woods Crampton make contemporary wines, balancing character, complexity and purity. The Woods Crampton Black Label range are single vineyard wines made in small volumes.

Sourced from a single, low-yielding and dry grown Eden Valley vineyard located near Cranform, not far from the Eden Valley township in Southern Eden Valley.

Winemaking: Hand-picked, cold soaked for 5 days at 7 degrees. Slow, temperature controlled ferment in 2 tonne open fermenters. 20% whole bunch, hand plunged twice daily. Gentle press off skins and racked to a blend of new and old French oak barriques. Topped only, no racking or stirring for 18 months. Unfined, minimal filtration and minimal sulphur at bottling.

Vintage 2022: Reduced yields due to pockets of frost and hailstorms through Spring and Summer, the 2022 vintage shows the resilience of the Barossa Valley with crops that ripened successfully producing wines that are ripe and generously flavoured with a finer structure.

Tasting Note: The nose offers a perfumed lift with notes of violet. The palate is supple and beautifully fruited, with dark berry, soft spice and silky tannins followed by well integrated oak and a long finish.
