The Nagambie District includes wineries near Nagambie, Graytown, Murchison and Whroo in the Nagambie Lakes sub-region of the Lower Goulburn Region, north of Melbourne. The grape growing industry in the Goulburn Valley began in this district and dates back to the 1850-1860s when the Tahbilk winery was established. Tahbilk is one of Australia's oldest, most beautiful and well known wineries. It now includes more than 1,200 hectares of rich river flats with along a river frontage of 11 km on the Goulburn River and many permanent streams, backwaters and creeks. Mitchelton winery was established in 1969 and produces award winning wines. The major grape varieties in the district are: Marsanne, Grenache, Shiraz, Roussanne, Viognier and Mourvedre (Mataro) all of which were originally sourced from France`s Rhone Valley. Most of the local wineries and vineyards have been established in the last 30 years and have mostly focused on classical varieties such as Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Chardonnay, Riesling, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Verdelho.
