Notes: Moppity Vineyards sits in the heart of the Hilltops region 12km SE of Young NSW, high on the slopes of Black Range at an elevation of 600m, and was among the foundation vineyards established in the Hilltops.The original blocks were planted in 1973, and produce exceptional fruit.
We carefully select the vineyard's very finest fruit, typically from the old, low-yielding vines - representing less than 5% of the total crop - for our wines. The remainder supplies the premium labels of other makers. At Moppity, we have embraced the philosophy that great wines are made in the vineyard. Consequently, every effort is made in the vineyard to promote fruit quality. Minimal irrigation, bunch-thinning and careful pruning ensures low yields of highly concentrated fruit - providing wines of great flavour intensity and regional and varietal distinction.
Directions: 12km S/E of Young on the Moppity Rd - 1.5hrs NW of Canberra
