The Hunter Valley

Australia's oldest wine region, still turning out semillon that ages better than it has any right to, hot-air balloons drifting over the vines at dawn, and a food trail of cheese and chocolate makers built entirely around the cellar-door crowd.
The best time to visit The Hunter Valley is Mar–May, Sep–Nov, when typical daytime highs reach about 24°C (74°F).
