Maya Maya at Mandoon Estate

Vineyards line the slopes of the Swan Valley, basking in Western Australia’s intense heat and sunshine to produce rich, full-bodied wines from Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc — often oak-aged — to Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. Set to the north-east of Perth, the state capital, the region is home to the oldest vineyards in Western Australia.

Some of the top wine hotels in the Swan Valley produce their own wines, whilst others promise dazzling vineyard views, or guided tours and tastings of the best spots in the area. Many also have gourmet restaurants, perfect for keen foodies and romantics. You'll find cycling, horse riding and walking trails, as well as great golf courses in the area. Within easy reach of Perth, the Swan Valley is ideal for a weekend away from the city, with ample opportunity to kick back with a glass or two of the good stuff.
