 The Denmark wine region - taste it, love it!
 The Denmark wine region offers delightful premium wines, from vineyards set amidst the area's natural
beauty.
The fine, high quality local wines have distinct, recognisable, regional characteristics, with the gentle summer temperatures
and higher winter rainfall being particularly suited to Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and Merlot.
The first vines were planted in 1976, at Tinglewood Wines, using cuttings from Mount Barker. The first vintage occurred in 1980 -
though it was to be another ten years before a second vineyard commenced, at Karriview Wines, quickly followed by a host of new
vineyards since.
Today there are around 20 cellar door operations, with a variety of associated attractions including gardens, picnic areas,
barbecue facilities and restaurants.
Enhance your visit to Denmark with a leisurely tasting of the outstanding
wines available from our many welcoming cellar doors (winery tours are available, so there is no need for a 'skipper') and enjoy music concerts and free musical entertainment through summer and autumn.
The wineries listed support the Denmark Tourist Bureau in providing visitor care. We hope you will support them in return.
