The Coonawarra wine region surrounds the town of Coonawarra in the Limestone Coast zone of South Australia. If you enjoy rich, colourful wines, you’ll love Coonawarra. The region’s Cabernet Sauvignon is internationally renowned and its Shiraz isn’t far behind. The region’s Terra Rossa soil (red soil containing limestone) is perfect for grape growing. Coonawarra is a small region, only 20 km | 12 mi in length and 2 km | 1.2 mi in diameter. Despite this, it is home to more than 24 cellar doors. They’re close together and well-signposted, so you’ll find them easily.
