For food and wine lovers, the South West of Western Australia is a destination not to be missed! The South-West offers an assortment of taste sensations, delicious food, and international award winning wines.
An abundance of fresh produce awaits you. Fruits, vegetables, and berries are hand picked right from the vine and available at the farm gate; it doesn’t get much fresher than that!
A plethora of local products will tantalise your tastebuds including marron, trout, cheese, chocolate, yoghurts, truffles, jams, olives, fudge, ice cream, and nougat. Some places even offer free tastings, so you can try before you buy.
Eating out will never be a problem in the South West with many award winning chefs lured to the area to enjoy the country lifestyle and opportunity to work with fresh ingredients and wines, that harmonise their speciality dish. You will never be short of choice in the South West with a variety of dining experiences including restaurants, cafés, wineries, and boutique breweries.
To compliment all the fantastic food is of course the South West’s world renowned selection wines. The Mediterranean climate and fertile soils of the South West have provided the perfect environment for growing grape vines. This is why there are over 60 world-class wineries to choose from.
The wine from this region is sold all over the world and is compared to the best that France has to offer. Enjoying a glass of wine in the very vineyard it was produced in is one of life’s simple pleasures, that the South West can offer to you at almost every turn.
A bottle of wine is best shared with friends in the spectacular surroundings of a winery. Take in the fresh, country air and enjoying the sweeping views of the vineyards that cover the country side, surrounded by massive karri trees.
The range of wines available is extensive and varies from a rich, full-flavoured Cabernet Sauvignon to a crisp, tropical flavoured Chardonnay. The world has started to take notice of the Margaret River Cab Sav and its sheer quality; comparing it favourably to Italian and Bordeaux offerings. The cool weather of the South West gives the Chardonnay it’s more elegant and refined style with rich, fruit flavours.
If wine is not your thing, don’t worry, there are a number of boutique breweries that offer traditional and unique beer to suit anyone’s taste buds.
The South West offers gourmet delights to satisfy the food and wine lover in all of us; making the region an irresistible destination for a day trip or a longer stay.
