Wine Tourism Showroom Although the first grapevines were only planted in the area in 1967, Margaret River is now considered to be one of the top wine-producing regions in Australia. A huge 20% of Australia's premium wines are made here. The 'terroir' is perfect for grape-growing: cool frost-free winters, good moisture-retaining soils and low summer rainfall provide a long, slow ripening period. These conditions produce greater intensity of fruit flavour, the starting point for all great wines. There are now some 150 wine producers in the region, many of which are open to the public for tastings and cellar-door sales. Others have restaurants and tours of their premises. A good place to start a wine tour is the Margaret River Wine Tourism Showroom at the visitor centre. It provides information about the regional wineries and vineyards, an interactive wineries screen, videos, a sensory display and wine-making paraphernalia. 100 Bussell Hwy.

Margaret River Wine Region One of Australia’s top wine regions, with cabernet sauvignon and chardonnay at the core of its reputation. Heralded by Australian wine critic James Halliday as the ‘golden triangle’ are three outstanding wineries. Leeuwin Estate is considered to make Australia’s most exquisite chardonnay, and sells its exclusive wines as part of the winery’s ‘Art Series’, with labels designed by leading contemporary Australian artists. The actual artworks can be viewed at the spectacular cellar door’s art gallery, which includes works by the likes of Sir Sidney Nolan. The grounds also host the popular annual Leeuwin Concert Series. The second outstanding winery is Voyager Estate, with its distinctive Dutch architecture and elegant rose garden, is a lovely place for tasting top-shelf wines; while the third in the triumvirate, Cape Mentelle offers fantastic chardonnay and semillon sauvignon blanc. Other outstanding wineries include Vasse Felix, Moss Wood, Ashbrook Estate and Cullen. The surrounding countryside is especially beautiful because of the pockets of bushland that have been left among the vines, and the abundance of environmentally sensitive buildings. Excellent restaurants and accommodation are found just about everywhere.
