The Wines

What You'll Taste

The Granite Belt is one of Australia's most exciting cool-climate wine regions — we prioritise small, owner-operated cellar doors with real character.

🍇

Cool-Climate Shiraz & Cabernet

Powerful but refined reds with plush fruit, earthy spice, and excellent bottle-ageing potential. Both classic and modern styles at every cellar door.

🥂

Chardonnay & Riesling

Bright stone fruit with crisp acidity on the Chardonnay; aromatic, floral, and refreshing Riesling that makes a perfect contrast to the richer reds.

🌿

Alternative Varieties

Boutique producers planting pinot noir, gewürztraminer, tempranillo, and sparkling. Often only available at cellar door — a real highlight of the trip.

🏺

Winemaker Meet & Greet

Barrel tastings, short winery tours, and relaxed conversations with the people who make the wine. That's the difference a guided tour delivers.
