Gippsland
Covering a vast area of South Eastern Victoria, the Gippsland Zone stretches from the eastern outskirts of Melbourne, to the north-eastern New South Wales border. The southern part of Gippsland borders the Bass Strait, while the western border abuts the Yarra Valley.
Mornington Peninsula
Tucked away about an hour's drive south of Melbourne sits one of Australia's most prized wine regions - the Mornington Peninsula.
Henty
The Henty region sits in the south-west corner of Victoria, bounded by South Australia to the west, and the rugged coastline to the south. It abuts the Grampians region to the north-east, near the town of Dunkeld
Geelong
In a south-western inlet bay of Port Phillip, lies Geelong. Approximately 75 kms from Melbourne, it was originally established during the Gold Rush in the mid 1800s, and quickly grew to be a major area for wine production.
Yarra Valley
Follow the Yarra River roughly 50km north-east of Melbourne, and it runs right through the heart of one of the most important wine regions in Australia: the Yarra Valley.
