Wines By Alexander Park

The winery has two functions. The first is the production the house's own brands, and the second function is to provide contract winemaking services for numerous Australian wine companies, presently including Southcorp. The property is 140 kilometres north of Melbourne, off the Hume Highway, located in the Strathbogie Ranges at 510 meters above sea level. The property is 2,200 acres or 890 hectares in size, whilst the topography is classified as undulating to hilly.

The first vines were planted in December 1996 comprising 33 acres of Shiraz and 32 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon

In November 1998, 109 acres of vines were planted: 15 acres of Shiraz, 15 acres of Pinot Noir, 35 acres of Sauvignon Blanc, 17 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon, 11 acres of Merlot and 15 acres of the Bernard Clones of Chardonnay. In September 1999 there were further plantings including 5 acres of Riesling, 5 acres of Verdelho and 7 acres of Chardonnay. Three types of trellising have been used at Dominion Estates; Vertical Shoot Position, Scott Henry and Geneva Double Curtain. Fifty per cent of the vineyard is VSP, 40% is Scott Henry, and the remainder is GDC.

Trellis design has been selected keeping in mind the vineyard's aims of 'Super Premium' wine grape production while still maintaining a cost effective approach to the management. Different trellis types impart individual flavour characteristics. The aim of selecting these trellis types is to obtain distinctively different grape flavours and therefore more complexity in the finished wine.
