 Regional Overview
Visiting Australia? Discover our main wine states and regions
Australian wine regions
Australia is a large country - Margaret River is further from the Hunter Valley than Jerez in Spain is from Tokaji in Hungary - so, despite the distinctive national approach to wine, Australian wines are not all the same. The wines of Margaret River and of the Hunter Valley differ as much as sherry and tokay do. The three most important wine-producing states are South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales. As well as bulk production, they each have specific premium wine regions.

Paul de Burgh-Day | |
| |
Paul de Burgh-Day is a Melbourne based importer of wine from Europe. His company, Fine Wines of Europe is shipping wine from many of Germany's greatest estates.
Paul Day began his romance with wine in Sydney in the mid 1960s at the beginning of the resurgence of serious winemaking, inspired by the now-famous names that emerged at the time - Max Lake, Peter McMahon, John Middleton, Bill Pannell, Stuart Anderson.
Moving to Melbourne in 1970, he found himself in the company of like-minded winelovers, and soon discovered the great wines of France, which at the time could be bought for a song. By the late 1970s, a passionate hobby buying and shipping French wine had evolved into a business, encouraging Paul to give up a career in the development industry and make a living from his love of wine. |
