Barossa Valley Hotels

Wine of course, is the flagship attraction in the Barossa. The region cultivates a wide range of varietals, such as Semillon, Grenache, Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon. Shiraz is the grape that seduces most visitors however and without question, the Barossa’s particular brand of the buxom, voluptuous red is highly coveted in cliquey oenophile circles. Wine-centric junkets abound of course and of the fifty or so producers who ply the vines in the Barossa, most offer generous tours and tastings. Aside from quaffable wine, the Barossa also offers up a slew of superb restaurants, shops, cultural festivals and recreational pursuits both adventurous and tame.
