Description

DogRidge is a small family owned venture that started when their first vineyard was purchased in 1992.

You may have missed the rabbit hole, but as you emerge, you know you are not in Kansas anymore.

This ‘wonderland’ is not the impersonal big winery tasting; it is as comfortable as the kitchen table but with the best Riedel glassware and the gentle hospitality of the cellar door manager, Janet Phillips.

There is Jen’s fresh baked sourdough bread and DogRidge's own fantastic olive oil to taste and perk up the palate and Dave’s hand-crafted refectory table to sit around while Janet presents their wines. Janet knows them intimately and is a mine of knowledge about the other wines and personalities of the district.

Tables and chairs outside under the gum trees beside the creek cater for picnics with friends and family. You can also order a delicious box of cheese from cellar door. Featuring organic Paris Creek Triple Cream Brie, Swiss and Cheddar cheese, dried fruit, nuts, crackers and seasonal fresh fruit. Cheese boxes are available daily - $35.
