Coonawarra, located in South Australia's Limestone Coast region, is one of the country’s premier wine regions, internationally acclaimed for its exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon. The secret to Coonawarra’s success lies in its unique terra rossa soil—a narrow strip of rich, red earth layered over limestone—which provides excellent drainage and imparts distinctive character to the wines.

The region’s cool maritime climate, influenced by nearby Southern Ocean breezes, allows for long, slow ripening, resulting in wines with intense flavor, structure, and elegance. While Cabernet is king, Coonawarra also produces outstanding Shiraz and Merlot. With its flat, open landscape, historic stone wineries, and a legacy of innovation and quality, Coonawarra is a must-visit for serious wine enthusiasts seeking world-class reds.
