Victoria

See Victoria producers

After South Australia and New South Wales, Victoria is the country's third most important viticultural state, responsible for 23% of the vines. Notable fine wine regions include the Yarra Valley (Pinot Noir prime spot), Sunbury (Chardonnay, Shiraz), Heathcote (Shiraz), Macedon Ranges (Pinot Noir), Rutherglen (Liqueur Muscats).

Victoria has a long history of vineyard settlements, although much was destroyed by phylloxera in the late 19^th century. Apart from hot Rutherglen, the Victorian viticultural regions are generally the country's second coolest after Tasmania. Victoria is the source of excellent sparkling wines as well as a great area for sweet fortified wines such as liqueur Muscat from Rutherglen in north-east Victoria.
