Welcome to Rutherglen, Victoria, Australia.

Rutherglen is blessed with the world’s richest wines, deep soul and character,
the powerful Murray, ancient river red gums, idyllic pastoral scenes and historic villages.
It has cutting edge cuisine and homely meals, cosy B&Bs and luxury accommodation,
great festivals and genuine characters.

It is a region where over 150 years of dedication and commitment have combined with a
unique climate, skill, youthful vibrancy and sense of fun to create a wine region that truly
is full of flavour. It is a gem amongst Australia’s wine regions.

For James Halliday, Australia’s premier wine commentator, it is:

"One of the truly great wine tourism destinations".

19 wineries now make up the Winemakers of Rutherglen. The prime focus of this
 association has been the promotion of the wineries and their products through
co-operative marketing. The winemakers have developed a number of events within the
region to promote tourism and wine sales. These include the Tastes of Rutherglen,
Rutherglen Winery Walkabout and the Rutherglen Young Bloods & Bloody Legends events.

See and Do

Our region is not just about food and wine. It is steeped in history, its fabric shaped
 by gold miners, boom, bust, generations of farmers, shopkeepers, sportsmen, churchmen
 and the mighty Murray. There are old mine sites, grand old homesteads, idyllic farmscapes,
classic shopfronts, footy grounds, some of Australia’s best golf courses and lawn tennis
courts, grand old churches and convents, sandy beaches and shady billabongs.
