The Mount Gambier Wine Region in the Limestone Coast Zone includes wineries south of Penola and Millicent and eastwards to the Victorian border. It includes wineries surrounding the townships of Mount Gambier, Kongorong, Moorak, Marte, Wandilo and Dartboogie. The wine growers in the area are supported by the Mount Gambier Regional Winegrowers Association which was formed in June 2003. This region is regarded by many as the diamond in the crown of the Limestone Coast Zone and is rapidly building a reputation for its outstanding reds made from Pinot varieties and white wines from Savignon Blanc and Chardonnay.

Soils range from terra rossa, sandy loams, volcanic loams around Glencoe and Mount Gambier, to the stony, flint and limestone soils Kongorong close to the coast. The first commercial vineyard was planted in 1982 and now the region has grown to include more than twenty growers and several wineries.
