Riverina District Wineries

The Riverina is the state’s largest wine-producing region, accounting for around half of New South Wales vineyards. Known for its warm, dry, Mediterranean-like climate, the area excels in the growth of chardonnay, shiraz, semillon and cabernet sauvignon. These ideal conditions promote consistent grape ripening and reliably quality yields. Its predominant soil type is red-brown earth, often layered with limestone rubble where most vines are planted. The region offers a laid-back, authentic experience, appealing to those interested in agricultural and heritage tourism.
