Bendigo: Melbourne's Wine Escape
Just 90 minutes from Melbourne, the Bendigo wine region is famous for its Shiraz, Cabernet, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir; however, it is now developing a reputation for Mediterranean-style wines such as Nebbiolo and Sangiovese. Fourteen cellar doors offer tastings, with Balgownie Estate boasting a beautiful restaurant with stunning views.
