"Wines of Western Australia" Top 5 Page for this destination State of Western Australia Favorite Tip by keeweechic

Favorite thing: Winemaking in WA dates back to the 1840’s and while the state produces a relatively small amount for its size in relation to the rest of the country, Western Australian wines are well known both throughout Australia and internationally for its diversity. There are many wine producing regions such as the Margaret River, Pemberton, Perth Hills, Great Southern and the Swan Valley. More so than the rest, Margaret River seems to lead the way with its cabernet although the Swan Valley is also known for its white burgundy chenin blanc, verdelho and shiraz. The Great Southern prides itself in its chardonnay and Riesling.

There are a number of tour operators who especially do winery tours :
