Hilltops is rapidly emerging as one of the most exciting viticultural regions in Australia. The high altitude, coupled with the dry summer and autumn, provides excellent ripening conditions. This enables the production of wines with great intensity of flavour and finesse.

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.
