Demondrille Merino Stud has had great success in the show ring, most recently winning Supreme Merino Exhibit at the 2019 Sydney Royal Easter Show.
They also won Supreme Ram, Supreme Ewe and Grand Champion Fleece at the 2017 Royal Sydney Show.
Other highlights have been winning the Supreme Exhibit at the Sydney Royal Easter Show in 2004 and 2006. In the 2009 Sales the stud won the Best Pen of 3 Sale Rams at Canberra, Armidale and Mudgee. 2010 Champion Sale Ram at the great Southern Sale at Canberra and Grand Champion Superfine Ram at the Sydney Royal 2010. 2011 was a great year with the stud achieving some great results including Champion Superfine Ram at Armidale. The ram later sold at the Armidale Ram Sale for $11,000 which is the top price for the stud.
In 2012 Demondrille merinos continued to perform well including dominating the Mudgee Merino Ram Show, taking out the Supreme Exhibit as well as the Superfine Wool Ram and the Pen of Three Sale Rams classes.
Over the last 5 years the stud ewes are achieving a wool cut of over 7kgs with an average micron of 18 and achieving over 100% lambing in some unfavourable weather conditions.
The Sires that Demondrille are currently using are selected for their well structured large frames, plain body types, without compromising wool quality and cut. The stud believes this type of merino will lend themselves well to the ever changing use of the merino ewe.
