Nagambie Lakes

Nagambie Lakes

Nestled within the heart of Victoria, Australia, lie the exquisite Nagambie Lakes, an underrated jewel of the Australian viticulture scene. This verdant oasis, awash with scenic beauty, is significantly distinguished by its lakes and rivers that create a unique mesoclimate, pivotal for the premium wines that originate here.

Transcending a mere geographical designation, Nagambie Lakes symbolises a rich vine heritage dating back to the pre-phylloxera era. At the core of this region's success is the Shiraz grape, a varietal that originated in Southeast France but has acclimated ideally to Nagambie Lakes' climatic conditions. The cool nights of this microclimate, coupled with rich granitic sandy loams, gift its Shiraz a distinct elegance, marked by densely packed berry flavours, subtle hints of spices and a velvety finish that is deeply characteristic of the terroir.

Alongside Shiraz, the Nagambie Lakes also speaks a tale of white grape prowess, the Riesling and Marsanne. Here, the Riesling finds its richer expression, presenting citrus overtures, balanced acidity, and a lingering minerality. On the other hand, the Marsanne basks in the warmth, unfurling tropical flavours and a delightful creaminess, unrivalled by its Rhône counterparts.

The vineyards in the Nagambie Lakes integrate traditional winemaking techniques with modern technological advancements, resulting in a production that is as meticulous as it is innovative. Central to these processes is the practice of sustainability, with minimal interventions and an emphasis on preserving the environmental integrity of this fertile landscape.

Every bottle of Nagambie Lakes wine echoes the authentic terroir of Victoria, offering a unique imprint of the region’s heart in its flavours, aromas, and textures. For wine enthusiasts or curious explorers, a visit to these vine-draped hills is not merely a journey, but an immersion in the romance of winemaking and an opportunity to savour the gastronomic symphony of the Nagambie Lakes.
