Pemberton
Recognised for its refined Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Pemberton’s high rainfall, cool nights, and well-drained soils create ideal conditions for aromatic whites and expressive reds. Many cellar doors are small and family-run, offering guests a genuine insight into winemaking craft. The region’s proximity to karri forests and lakes adds a serene backdrop to every visit.
Manjimup
Known for its structured Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, and Merlot, Manjimup also produces fine Chardonnay and Verdelho. Its elevated vineyards and long ripening season yield wines of depth and finesse. Beyond wine, the area’s reputation for truffles and seasonal produce makes it a natural pairing for those seeking an authentic food and wine experience.
