Patiently it waits
The Macedon Ranges are hiding a delicious secret, writes Jane Faulkner, in
The Age. Off an unsealed dirt road flanking the majestic Cobaw State Forest,
just out of Kyneton, is an entrance to a natural amphitheatre surrounded by
rows of vines and now-full dams. It's a special place and home to Cobaw
Ridge, which makes Australia's finest lagrein. Owner-growers Alan and Nelly
Cooper also produce excellent chardonnay, syrah and pinot noir but for more
than a decade they have been championing this rare red.
