Where are we traveling?
New South WalesAustralia
New South Wales
New South Wales is an Australian wine powerhouse, accounting for almost a third of Australian production. The state has 16 wine regions, which results in a great diversity of terroirs and climates and allows for the cultivation of a range of varieties, each with its own characteristic flavor. Although New South Wales is Australia's second largest wine producing state, it is also the most populous state, causing wine consumption to exceed production.
Victoria
Victoria is a relatively small, but culturally important Australian state. It is located in the southeastern corner of the continent with a cool, ocean-influenced climate. It has the greatest diversity of regional climates, from the very cold Macedonian mountain ranges to the very warm regions stretching along the Murray River from the northeast to the northwest of the state.
The little history of the country
Australia
Australia began producing wine more than two centuries ago. This has resulted in a country rich in old vines, multi-generational winemaking families and an ingrained knowledge and respect for craftsmanship. Add to that a thirst to explore and innovate, a fearless attitude and a diverse notebook of 65 wine regions in many climates, and you have the makings of an extraordinary wine country unlike any other.
Australia burst into export markets in the 1980s and since then has been providing the world with vibrant, fruity and exceptional value wines. Until the late 1990s and early 2000s, Australian wine history was dominated by examples of Shiraz, Grenache and overly concentrated red blends. Between these two extremes lies the diversity of Australia's offering of high quality and regional wines that has always existed.
Australian viticulture is mainly concentrated on the southern oceanic edge where conditions are cooler. There are four main wine regions located around major cities. Western Australia around Perth, South Australia around Adelaide, Victoria around Melbourne and New South Wales around Sydney.
The country is one of the largest wine producers in the world, and was the 4th largest exporter in the world in 2011. This recent development now makes Australia one of the most prominent countries for the quality of its wines. You can taste Australian wines all over the country. Each Australian region has its own grape varieties. Australian wines are defined by their grape variety, unlike French wines which are defined by their terroir.
