Hotham Ridge Winery

Enjoy award-winning, single-vineyard organic and biodynamic wines from a rustic rammed-earth cellar door and art gallery surrounded by peaceful gardens and overlooking the Hotham Valley.

Formerly Hotham Valley Estate, the vineyard was planted in 1988. Current owners Leonard Bruin and Wouter Denig converted the operation to follow strict organic and biodynamic practices in 2002. Situated at an altitude of 350 metres, the vineyards enjoy ideal growing conditions of hot summers and cool winters, evident in the wines which combine elegance, structure and vibrant fruit characters.

Hotham Ridge has won over 30 different medals and 11 trophies from various Australian wine shows since 2003.

Wine varieties include Chenin Blanc, Semillon, Riesling, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Shiraz, Tempranillo, Verdelho and Zinfandel. A Mistelle white port or Shiraz port is also available in winter.

Open from Friday-Sunday, the rustic cellar door offers a stunning environment to discover the wines and learn about organic and biodynamic winemaking principles.
