How do Australian wine regions compare in terms of wine styles and characteristics?

The weather of Australia's vineyards is ionically different in every region due to the climatic diversity, variety of soils and the terrain which is the vital factor in the wide variety of the wine and its features. In the same vein, cool zone wine regions like Tasmania or the Adelaide Hills produce clean, crisp and aromatic whites together with great sparkling wines, while warmer regions like Barossa Valley or McLaren Vale are exceptionally perfect for the production of the thick, full-bodied red wines. Touring wine growing regions affords not only a palate of the scope and range of Australian wines, but also provides a taste for the passion and heart that goes with their creation.
