Barossa

BAROSSA

The most famous region in Australia is alive and well with a constant buzz of great wine and big personalities. Here you’ll find the classic and more established producers doing things as well as they always have and newer winemakers making cleverly evolved versions of the great style soft shiraz, grenache, cabernet sauvignon and riesling. The personality of this place is strong and sturdy, whether you’re exploring the elevated Eden Valley or the valley floor, you’ll feel the resilience in the landscape and the people, as much as you will in the wines themselves. As every visitor to the Barossa knows, the hospitality is legendary. This place has so much to discover. NICK STOCK
