Cool climate/Elevation 600-850m Orange has attracted significant capital investment in viticultural development over the last decade. The region is dominated by Mount Canobolas, an extinct volcano that rises to almost 1400m. Most of the vineyards are north and north-east facing and located at altitudes of 600 to 800m. At higher elevations, the vineyards are planted on predominantly red volcanic soils. The region experiences a high degree of continentality – spring frosts and hail can be a problem. In winter the vineyards will often get a brushing of snow. This region shows great promise. Rosemount has done much to highlight its potential. Chardonnay, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot all show promise, although this area has yet to really prove itself. Andrew Caillard MW, Langton's
