About Barossa Valley
Barossa Valley is a world-famous wine region located northeast of Adelaide, Australia. It is home to more than 150 wineries and 80 cellar doors, and is known for producing some of the finest red wines and fortified wines in the world. The region boasts of having the world's oldest continuously producing vines of Shiraz, Grenache, Mataro, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Semillon.
The area encompasses several towns, including Tanunda, Angaston, and Nuriootpa, where visitors can explore high-profile wineries and participate in cellar-door tastings.
