Victoria’s #1 Wine region: The Yarra Valley
If you like a ‘good nose’ on your wine that teases the palate, maybe its time you turned your attention to the Yarra Valley, Victoria’s #1 Wine Region. Its a cool climate region that offers over 80 wineries, specialising in Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Cabernet sav.
The best way to get out there and enjoy the wine without the fuss and worry of driving is to jump on with the ‘Aust Wine tour Company’. They leave from the city everyday and take you to 4 wineries in the Yarra Valley including a
beautiful lunch at the Rochford’s winery which hosts “The day on the green”.
The Day on the Green is an event that features major artists from around the world pulling in crowds in the thousands. Sit outside and have a picnic with a glass of Rochford’s famous Moscato, This years festival is on the 8th of March.
You also get a glass of Sparkling wine at Chandon! Its a perfect day out with friends or family at a superb location 50 mins out of Melbourne and you’ll walk away being pleasantly suprised by their wines and passionate knowledge then enjoy the scenery of the surrounding mountains on the way back to the City.
A day trip will only set you back $98, Drop by the Mad Travel shop at Nomads All Nations Backpackers Melbourne for bookings and information.
We highly recommend you go out there to the Yarra Valley and see Victoria’s #1 wine region for yourself!
