And more than 50 wineries continuing a tradition that started way back in 1845, when a hock from Echunga became Australia's first wine export (it was sent to Queen Victoria but no-one's sure if she was brave enough to taste it). Today, some of Australia's most elegant cool climate sparkling and still wines are produced in the region, from grape varieties including: Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for sparkling and table wines in the coolest areas; Riesling, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot in the slightly warmer areas; and Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Shiraz in the lower altitudes.
Twenty-five cellar doors offer wine tastings and sales, for such premier labels as Nepenthe, Shaw and Smith and Petaluma. And for pure indulgence, don't miss the award-winning Bridgewater Mill restaurant and cellar door. Great little roadside stalls and farmers markets are dotted around the region, and include the new Battunga Country Growers Market at Macclesfield. There you'll find local fruit, organic vegetables, herbs, wood-fired organic bread, nuts and more every Sunday from 10am to 3pm.
