History

Oakridge Wines has been capturing the spirit of the Yarra Valley for more than three decades.
Established near Seville in Victoria’s Yarra Valley, Oakridge Wines began as a family company. A pioneer of the Upper Yarra Valley, Oakridge recognised the potential for making great wine on the rich, red, volcanic soils of the sub-region.

The turn of the century saw Oakridge move to its location in Coldstream, and become a part of one of Australia’s larger wine companies.

In recent times, Oakridge once again returned to family ownership.

Vineyards

We are grape farmers. We believe in the maxim that great wines are made in the vineyard. We go further- we have carefully selected our sites, we monitor and work with our growers at every stage of the season, we are constantly in the vineyards testing and checking. We hand pick all fruit at exactly the right time  and we drive our trucks to deliver the fruit to our winery in the best condition  and we cool and rest our grapes overnight. In short we go to great lengths for find improvements in the vineyard.

Winemaking

At Oakridge we craft our wines using traditional methods and local knowledge built over 30 vintages to bring out the best of every season. Our Oakridge house style delivers wines known for their subtlety, elegance, freshness, purity ,balance and length. Our award winning wines consistently outperform their price points and are approachable and food friendly – in short, table wines in the true sense.

Winemaking Artisans
And in the winery we apply traditional winemaking techniques. We rely on minimal intervention using observation and understanding. Importantly we use our experience accumulated over successive vintages to make judgments on such things as using natural yeasts, minimal pumping and plunging, size of barrels and minimal racking and filtration. Importantly we only intervene in the natural process of wine making when we need to.

Inside information

Our Philosophy
Each bottle of Oakridge wine holds a memory, each has a unique story that starts in one of our vineyards and ends when you enjoy it. Our wines are fresh with a purity of flavour and balance. As young wines they are almost seamless- nothing appears out of place. You simply yearn for another glass. With age, our wines retain their freshness and purity but build additional layers of complexity and palate length. You enjoy the lingering taste of our wines long after others have dropped away. You readily appreciate just what the Yarra Valley and the specific sites we have chosen can deliver and why the Yarra Valley is a premier wine region.

We achieve this level of distinctiveness and excellence because we are both vignerons and master winemaking artisans.
