Fox Creek
An established and well-known brand, Fox Creek is a popular maker of ripe, approachable and handsomely oaked McLaren Vale reds, one of this country's better whites from verdelho plus a restrained, perfumed Vermentino. Fox Creek's reds are today perhaps occupying the popular mid-ground between the ripe blockbuster expressions and the finer, leaner McLaren Vale styles.
