Sitting within the larger Hunter Region, the Hunter Valley is one of the largest river valleys in New South Wales. Just 120 km from Sydney at its southern edge, the Hunter Region extends northwards for almost another 200 km, and takes in both coastal beaches and mountain heights as well as the wineries of the Hunter Valley.
Perhaps known most widely as one of Australia's most celebrated wine regions, the Hunter Valley has more than 150 wineries to tempt the palate, yet offers so much more than some of the world's finest wines. The region is most famous for its Semillon wine, which are crisp when young but develop beautifully when cellared. Medium-bodied Shiraz is also a star here, while Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon are popular choices.
