McLaren Flat SA 5171
Australia
DogRidge is located at the base of The Southern Mount Lofty Ranges over looking the beautiful McLaren Vale wine region. This premium South Australian wine-growing region is known for its consistency and reliability. DogRidge Vineyards employ modern viticultural practices which optimise sun exposure and canopy health, resulting in ripe fruit of intense colour and quality. This desirable combination has led to the creation of wines that express outstanding depth of colour, aromatic elegance and richness of flavour.
DogRidge is a family owned operation of 140 acres (56HA). They have many different vineyards ranging in age from young 2004 graftings of Viognier to some of the oldest bush vines remaining in the region today. At their McLaren Flat vineyards, DogRidge boasts several 1940's plantings of Shiraz, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon that form the basis of their premium bottled product. The soils vary considerably over a small area giving them the opportunity to select small parcels of the best fruit which reflect the terrior of each site adding to the uniqueness of their finished wines. DogRidge is also a respected grower for several premium McLaren Vale wine companies and is a current member of the Wine Grapes Australia group of premium grape growers.
