WineLife Australia
Australia began its relationship with wine in 1788 when Captain Arthur Phillip alighted at Sydney Cove imported Australia’s first grape vines from Brazil and the Cape of Good Hope. This tentative start was the birth of a thriving viticultural industry that in a fraction over 200 years would be exporting over 800 million litres of wine to the world.
With over 60 designated wine regions, the diversity of grapes and resulting wines is on offer the world over and showcases Australia’s established and credible offer of quality wines at every price point.
Australian viticulturists have an enormous diversity of soils, some over 500 million years old that affords them the luxury of planting each variety in an environment guaranteed to see it thrive. Whether it be free draining soil littered with ironstone, ideal for the exacting Pinot Noir, or the famed Terra Rossa, beloved of Cabernet Sauvignon the result of carefully considered plantings is outstanding quality fruit.
