A favourite of local and international travellers alike, one of Victoria’s most accessible wine regions continues to offer an impressive selection of wine and food experiences despite the unpredictability of recent times. From the bustle of Maroondah Highway to the winding roads through Seville and Nillumbik Shire, the valley’s range of large-scale operations and smaller, artisanal cellar door offerings make the region just as approachable for individual visitors as it does for large groups. Stick to the classics or explore a new wave of producers expanding their range, with gamay, sangiovese and nebbiolo quickly becoming champion varieties of this historic area.
