Moorabool River-Victoria, Australia

This area is renowned for its diverse microclimates and complex soil compositions, including ancient marine seabeds overlaid with volcanic basalt and alluvial deposits. Such geological diversity contributes to the distinctive minerality and depth found in the region's wines. The Moorabool River Valley benefits from a temperate climate, with cooling influences from nearby bodies of water, allowing for a prolonged growing season. This extended ripening period enables the development of nuanced flavors and balanced acidity in the grapes. Geelong's rich viticultural history, combined with innovative practices by contemporary winemakers like Jonathan Ross, has solidified its reputation as a producer of premium, terroir-expressive wines.
