Marong - Cities, Towns and Localities

Marong is located in ‘The Goldfields’ region of Victoria that includes Avoca, Ballarat, Bendigo, Castlemaine, Clunes, Creswick, Dunolly, Heathcote, Maldon and Maryborough.

Just 14 km west of Bendigo, Marong has close access to the services and facilities of a historic city with plenty of attractions and activities, whilst itself retaining the charm of a small country town.

For the wine lover Marong is also located in the Bendigo region, with its dry, warm summers and relatively frost-free winters, which is quickly regaining the reputation it had in the 19th century for producing superb red wines. Take the time to visit Sandhurst Ridge and discover one of the gems of the region.

• Named best winery of the Bendigo region in James Halliday’s 2005 Wine Companion, Sandhurst Ridge produces big, hand-crafted wines full of character.

A visit to the cellar door (just 15 minutes from the centre of Bendigo) virtually guarantees an informative conversation with someone with hands-on knowledge of the vines as well as the wines, since the owners – brothers Paul and George Greblo – reside on the estate and it’s an all-in-the-family business.

Their first vintage, the 1995 Sandhurst Ridge Shiraz – was awarded five stars by Winestate magazine, and their wines have been piling up accolades ever since.
