Narkoojee

Narkoojee is a little vineyard and winery within easy reach of the gold mining town of Walhalla. At Narkoojee you can look out over the Strzelecki Ranges as you taste the rich and intensely flavoured table wines. Narkoojee means "place of flowers"

Narkoojee is nestled into the foothills of the Great Dividing range, just 12 kms north of Traralgon in central Gippsland.

The vineyard is on deep, fertile, alluvial soils comprising various mixtures of clay, silts, sand and ironstone gravels. The first vines planted were chardonnay, merlot and cabernet sauvignon from which two wine styles were made; a dry white and a dry red. The wines were immediately successful, winning bronze and gold medals at their first showing and two trophies in 1988 and 1989.

In 1990, a further 5 acres were planted with chardonnay, cabernet franc, merlot and two clones of cabernet sauvignon.

The vineyard has been consistently ranked very highly by critics and judges alike. This has been borne out by the volume of prizes won by their wines.
