Other AustraliaWith a landmass the size of the US, Australia has just as many appellations. Many wines are simply labeled from their state of origin. Some of these are the most popular: New South Wales – home to Sydney and other tourist destinations, New South Wales has a smaller focused wine growing region, but many wines are a blend of these smaller appellations and so are deemed New South Wales appellation. Western Australia – a small corner of Australia winemaking occurs on the opposite coast of the others. The largest state, Western Australia includes the smaller appellation of Margaret River.
Southeastern Australia – This appellation encompasses the states of South Australia, New South Wales and
Victoria. Grapes are often trucked
in from at least of these states for crushing and bottling, giving the wine a more general appellation of
origin. This is the broadest appellation in the country. |
