Barossa (South Australia), (National Geographic Traveller India & Khaleej Times): South Australia has become a melting pot of culinary experiences from around the world, where chef’s inspired by the region’s rich heritage and strong traditions are serving up a smorgasbord of innovative dishes created from fresh seasonal produce with a very distinct local flavour.
The cuisine resonates with sensual local wines created by experimental winemakers, making this fourth largest Australian state a much sought after destination for passionate gastronomic travellers.
The state’s unique combination of soil, rainfall and climate has put it on the map alongside the Napa Valley, Tuscany and Bordeaux. It prides itself for its clean, green, fresh produce, which has encouraged a continual evolution of artisan producers, who are making new products by absorbing international influences and adapting to the local produce.
