VICTORIAN WINE REGIONS
North-East Victoria The North East Victoria Wine Zone has five wine regions, Alpine Valleys, Beechworth, Glenrowan, King Valley and Rutherglen. No matter what your favourite wine may be, the North East will have something for you.
Rutherglen The name of this wine region is etched into the history of Australian winemaking. The fortified wine styles of Port and especially Liqueur Muscat and Tokay are undoubtedly of world class. After about 140 years as a wine region Rutherglen was developing a fairly tired, passé image in the late nineties, but since then it has been revitalised.
Beechworth Is a small historic town surrounded by a small wine region. There are only a few wineries but they make up for their limited production by making wines of great finesse.
Yarra Valley Sir Paz Cellar Door Offering Estate Grown wines of distinction and exclusive Mediterranean Cheese Platters for all discerning wine & cheese enthusiasts. Open 10.30am to 5.00pm, Saturdays & Sundays www.sirpaz.com
