About Australian Wine
Australia is one of the world's great wine nations and a favourite with New Zealand wine lovers. Warm, sunny vineyards give ripe, generous reds, while cooler regions such as Tasmania, the Yarra Valley and Margaret River produce elegant whites and Pinot Noir. Shiraz is Australia's signature grape, alongside Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Chardonnay and Riesling.
Barossa and McLaren Vale Shiraz
The Barossa Valley in South Australia is famous for rich, full bodied Shiraz with dark plum, chocolate and spice, much of it from old vines. Nearby McLaren Vale makes plush Shiraz and Grenache with a Mediterranean feel. Explore our Barossa Shiraz collection, plus Torbreck, Elderton, Langmeil, St Hallett, Two Hands, Wirra Wirra and Chapel Hill.
Coonawarra, Clare Valley and Margaret River
Coonawarra's famous terra rossa soil produces structured, minty Cabernet Sauvignon, the Clare Valley is known for crisp Riesling and powerful Shiraz from Taylors Estate and Two Hands, and Margaret River in Western Australia makes refined Chardonnay and Cabernet from Stella Bella and Capel Vale.
