Our Story

 Grapes on the Ridge

 

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

We now produce a range of boutique wines from 90 acres of premium McLaren Vale vineyards.

DogRidge is the name of an old-fashioned vine rootstock and strangely it caught our imagination. Given the main house is on a ridge overlooking the vines, and we are besotted with curly haired – four legged friends, you can figure it out.

So, DogRidge it is, a shared dream that includes art, an intimate cellar door and gallery, heritage vines and, above all, a commitment to distinctive wines that celebrate the beauty around us.
