Greenock Vineyard

Greenock is the home of Murray Street. It is the foundation of everything we produce. Since 2001, our focus has never wavered from this single site. Every bottle is grown, crafted and produced here, making us one of the few truly estate-grown wineries in the Barossa Valley.

The Greenock Estate spans 56 hectares across 33 individually managed sections, planted to 14 varietals including Shiraz, Grenache, Mataro and Cabernet Sauvignon, alongside a selection of Rhône and Bordeaux varieties. This diversity allows us to craft wines of remarkable range and character, each carrying the unmistakable fingerprint of Greenock.

Set on the Western Ridge, the estate is defined by ancient soils of red-brown loam over siltstone and ironstone, with pockets of calcareous clay. Combined with a warm Mediterranean climate and an average annual rainfall of 480mm, these conditions produce fruit of concentration, structure and depth. It is a site we are deeply connected to and committed to farming sustainably for generations to come.
