Paringa Estate Winery and Restaurant

"A unique vineyard site combined with passionate and often brilliant winemaking means Paringa Estate shines as a beacon in the region. The Pinot Noir can be quite brilliant and the Shiraz from a good vintage is one of the very best examples of the cool climate style in Australia. There is an excellent restaurant at the cellar door if the wines knock you off your feet and you need to sit down." Stuart Gregor
