The Hunter Valley is located in the country west of Newcastle. Sydney is only two hours away. As its name does not suggest this is one of the major wine regions of Australia (and therefore one of the main tourist destinations in the area). Paradise for foodies, the Hunter Valley is home to many fine restaurants. Do not miss all the tastings available to you: wines, cheeses, olive oils and chocolates. It is also in the region that the Wyndham Estate lies (photo), home of the first Australian Shiraz.
