Australia produces wines that are amongst the best in the world!
The diversity of Australian landscapes and soils ensures an optimal environment for every variety of wine grape. Many classic Australian matches include the Hunter Valley Semillon, Yarra Valley Pinot Noir, Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon , Clare Valley Riesling, Barossa Valley Shiraz and Margaret River Chardonnay – however each of these regions have a multiplicity of other varieties and none have exclusivity on its core variety.
The option to stock your vessel with International wines and are also available within Australia, however, keep in mind that tax on wine (WET) in Australia is quite extensive therefore more expensive, almost double the price of the USA.
Wine tourism in Australia is also extensive, with all wine growing regions offering cellar door and incredible dining options as well as luxurious accommodation with unforgettable views.
