King Valley's Italian spirit*

Visit any cellar door in the King Valley and be instantly transported to the Mediterranean. Immerse yourself in a heritage that stretches back over 60 years, and all the way to the Italian Alps, the cool hillsides of Calabria and villages of Sicily.

Be enraptured by the Italian spirit that permeates the King Valley, a landscape eminently suited to the growing of cool, crisp white wines and savoury, spicy reds. Wines of a style that ‘prepare your mouth for food’, with a savoury tanginess to make your mouth water.

This is the King Valley, Australia’s little Italy, where heritage and passion fuses with a landscape and climate that mimics the great regions of northern Italy.

Meet the winemakers and their families face-to-face when you visit, and experience firsthand the passion they share for life and their Australian made, Italian varieties of: Prosecco, Nebbiolo, Sangiovese, Pinot Grigio, Dolcetto, Arneis & Barbera.

Wines of the King Valley members are: Boggy Creek Vineyards, Brown Brothers, Chrismont, Ciccone, Dal Zotto, La Cantina, Politini, Pizzini and Sam Miranda King Valley.
