What wines are produced in Australia?

Australia produces more than 100 varieties of wine in its 60-plus designated wine regions. The time-honored debate as to what wines are better — old world or new world — is as complex as a glass of vino itself. Aficionados of velvety smooth wines from old-world regions such as France and Italy will reach for bottles of bordeaux or cabernet sauvignon. And oenophiles who enjoy the bigger and more aggressive flavors may prefer the new-world wines such as Australia’s shiraz or malbec.
