Welcome to Issue 17! Celebrated as Australia’s oldest and most visited wine region and with a pedigree dating back to the early 1800s, the Hunter Valley is considered the country’s premier food and wine destination and home to some of most outstanding wines, restaurants and local produce. With more Cellar Doors than any other wine region in Australia, the Hunter Valley is perhaps best known for its world-renowned varietals – Semillon and Shiraz – but a tasting here will also have you sipping a broad range of distinctive and innovative wines, from classic to newer varieties. We take our beer and spirits pretty seriously too, with a raft of new producers and distilleries opening up to give visitors a taste of local craft beers, ciders, gins, vodkas and liqueurs. Book a wine tasting, savour the menu from a diversity of restaurants and cafés along any and all of the six Wine & Food Trail Maps.
