Verjus and Caramelised Verjus 

Family owned and run vineyard 

Recommended by Good Living Magazine

 
The Orange Mountain Wine company is owned and operated by Terry and Julie Dolle. They grow the Viognier variety at their Orange vineyard which have a natural affinity with the land producing richly flavoured wines and Verjus that display intense varietal characters.

Julie explains "we pick the tiny, hard green berries from the vines and crush them. We started making it when the vines were young and there was too much fruit on them." "A lot of people cut the fruit off the vines and leave it to rot, but we thought we could do something with the excess fruit if we picked it early enough."

In 2010 they created the latest product in the VerJus range; a Caramelised VerJus which has created a real buzz in at the markets.

“Pale pink in colour and in a tall, elegant bottle, Orange Mountain verjus catches the eye on the shelves. It can be sustituted for wine in many recipes - use it to deglaze the defatted pan juices from a roast chicken and toss in a little tarragon for a quick succulent sauce. Made from unripened viognier grapes, it is produced by the Dolle family at Manildra. Mix it with olive oil, garlic, mustard and salt flakes for a delicious dressing for just-steamed asparagus.”
