Nestled in the hamlet of Leasingham
(2 kilometres south of Watervale), the Tim Gramp
winery has served as a production and cellar door
sales base since its purchase in 1996.
The four acre Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard, winery complex
and old stone cottage provided the perfect opportunity
for Tim Gramp to pursue his winemaking direction and
philosophy.
Following 1996, many developments have taken place
at “Gramp headquarters”. These include
extensive renovations to the old cottage, a total
refit to the winery, a new crushing facility and
crusher/destemmer,
housing of an old basket press, and the planting
of a new Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard.
This vineyard has been designed using a unique Italian “Sylvoz” trellising
system – the first of its kind in the Clare
Valley.
Other recent developments such as the use of screw
caps for the entire range of Tim Gramp wines
represent an important blending of modern wine making
practices with traditional methods such as basket
pressing that have withstood the test of time.
This, combined with the best quality fruit sourced
from the best performing regions, results in wines
of outstanding quality and consistency.
