The Canberra wine region is located in the Australian Capital Territory and surrounding areas of New South Wales. It is a relatively small wine region, but has gained recognition for producing high-quality cool-climate wines. The region's wine history dates back to the 1970s, when the first commercial vineyards were established. Since then, the Canberra wine region has grown to include over 30 wineries and has become known for its unique terroir and boutique wineries.
