Discover Australian Wine – Regions and Varieties Wine Australia for Australian Wine Discover Australian Wine Regions and Varieties Discover Australian wine There’s nothing in the world like Australian wine because there’s nothing like the climate, soils and regions of Australia. We have some of the oldest geology and most complex soils in the world. The Australian wine community today is founded on the explorers of the past, who identified the optimal vineyard sites and the sophisticated winemaking techniques that make our fine wines so special. Australian winemaking and grapegrowing is constantly evolving. Our winemakers and viticulturists are curious, willing to experiment and to challenge convention to ensure that they craft authentic wines that are a true expression of place. From the iconic to the lesser known, our 65 wine regions each boast distinct characteristics that are expressed in wines made by talented winemakers attuned to their land. This brochure provides a snapshot of that regional diversity, and of the main wine styles for which Australia is renowned. Wine is the sum of its parts. There’s nothing like Australian wine because there’s nothing like the people and the places of Australia. We invite you to discover more about what makes Australian wine authentic, unique and exciting.
