Oakridge was first setup in 1978 as what was originally a family company. By the turn of the century the label was gobbled up by a large Australian wine company (where it flailed) until being taken back into family hands with the talented David Bicknell on winemaking duties in 2002. Since then Oakridge - and David Bicknell - has garnered a reputation as one of our finest Chardonnay makers, with a particularly handy Pinot and Shiraz or two also in the Oakridge portfolio
Oakridge Wine Types
Oakridge is all about the Yarra Valley, and particularly the Upper Yarra where it sources much of it's fruit from. The range starts with the Over the Shoulder wines which are designed as food friendly entree drops that would likely find a home on wine lists around the nation. These wines include a Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Shiraz Viognier and Cabernet Merlot. The next step up is the Estate wines, which include a smart Blanc de Blanc sparkler, Fumé Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. Finally, the top tier is the 864 wines, including a single vineyard Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, with the Chardonnay in particular regarded as one of Australia's finer modern whites</p>

Dark purple body with hot-pink rim. Spicy and fragrant on the nose with plums, redcurrants, Earl Grey tea and oregano combining with bright summer fruits of strawberry and mulberries, with the faintest sprinkling of white pepper. The palate is a p...
