Dindima Wines

Dindima Winery is a family owned and operated boutique vineyard, winery and cellar door located in the Orange Region of NSW.

At our cellar door we offer elegant cool climate wines made from small parcels of hand picked grapes that are matured in premium quality French and American oak. Dindima’s wines are made in a French style, displaying typical cool climate varietal characters and drink especially well when matched with food.

Dindima’s whites include Semillon, Chardonnay and a Moscato made from our Muscat grapes that were planted around 1948. Our reds include Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Merlot, and Muscat. Our wines are available for tasting at our cellar door. Whether tasting inside or out under the trees you’ll receive warm hospitality from our friendly and knowledgeable staff. Treat your senses to our premium quality, handcrafted wines served in Riedel stemware, and enjoy a photographic exhibition of wine images, gourmet preserves and more.

Dindima is an Aboriginal, Wiradjuri word (din dee-ma) that means 'group of stars'.

Our dindima is the 'Southern Cross and its Pointers' that circles the night sky above Mt Canobolas.

Merlot is the first of our reds to be picked and this year because of the dry season the bunches were loose with small, intensely purple almost black berries. Just the way we like them!

When we begin picking the Black Muscat grapes we have a real sense that the hectic pace of vintage is coming to an end.
