The fourth annual Aussie Wine Month kicks off today

The fourth annual Aussie Wine Month, the country’s biggest celebration of Australian wine kicks off today and will run throughout May with 170 food and wine events taking place around the country.

Aussie Wine Month, an initiative of Wine Australia, encourages wine drinkers to discover the diversity, quality and regionality of our local wines and share their discoveries by including #AussieWineMonth in their social media posts.

In the country there’ll be wineries and regions hosting tastings, dinners, winery walks and festivals while in the city there’ll be pop-up cellar doors, food and wine tastings and pubs, bars and restaurants will have an all-Australian wine-by-the-glass list.

Aussie Wine Month is a great time to plan a wine weekend getaway, try a new wine style or explore the wines of some of Australia’s lesser known wine regions. With 65 Australian wine regions to choose from, there’s plenty for the wine lover to discover right on their doorstep.

Share your Aussie wine experience by including #AussieWineMonth on social media.
