Margaret River
The region is going from strength to strength, the wines produced
in the region cover all the classic varietals and many new wineries
are emerging. The very pleasant thing about a visit to the region
is the scenery, the beauty of the area and the culinary delights.
As a tourism destination there is so much to see.
Geography:
The landscape in Margaret River changes markedly kilometre to
kilometre. Whether it be characterised by small creeks and sweeping
valleys, or by thick native bush.
For successful
vineyard planting, there must be an element of protection from the
sometimes harsh sea winds The soil extremely permeable when moist,
but will readily shed this moisture from the sloping valleys. As
overall water capacities are low, there is a general need for irrigation
among the vines.
