Australian wine information

The Australian viticulture industry is the fourth largest exporter in the world, exporting over 400,000,000 litres a year to a large international export market that includes traditional wine-producing countries such as France, Italy and Spain. There is also a significant domestic market for Australian wines. The wine industry is an important contributor to the Australian economy through production, employment, export and tourism.

Major grape varieties are Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay , Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, and Riesling. The country has no native grapes, and were introduced from Europe and South Africa in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Some varieties have been bred by Australian viticulturalists, for example Cienna. About 130 different grape varieties are used by commercial winemakers in Australia.

In recent years organic wines have been increasing in popularity, following a worldwide trend. In 2004 Australia hosted the First International Biodynamic Wine Forum which brought together biodynamic wine producers from around the globe. Despite the overproduction of grapes many organic and biodynamic growers have enjoyed continuing demand thanks to the premium prices winemakers can charge for their organic and biodynamic products.

Australian wineries

Australian wineries have hit the world stage, and are widely recognised for producing consistently high quality, fruit driven Australian Wines. The largest volume of wine is produced from grapes grown in the warm climate Murray-Darling Basin zones of Lower Murray, North Western Victoria and Big Rivers. In general, the higher-value premium wines are made from smaller and cooler-climate regions.

There's probably no better way to get acquainted than to drive or take a tour to one of the Australian wine regions. If you're visiting Australia, take time to go wine-tasting in the vineyards at one or more of the Australian wine regions. Wineries may host tours, group functions, wine-tasting, as well as serve traditional Australian fare.

Escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life to Honeysuckle Cottages to enjoy the crisp, clean mountain air, the country hospitality and the unique scenery of the Granite Belt, renowned for its fruit, wines and rocky National Parks.
