<p>Cool climate/Elevation 300-800m The Hilltops and Canberra District wine regions in the south of New South Wales are located on the flanks of Great Dividing Range. Wine growing is a relatively recent phenomenon, the first vineyards planted in the late 1960s. Although described as a cool-climate area, summers are often hot with prolonged sunshine hours. The Hilltops region is located on south-western slopes. Mc William&rsquo;s Barwang vineyard is an exemplary site. The Canberra district located on elevated tablelands (about 500m) is much drier during the growing season requiring irrigation. Spring frosts can be a problem, although most vineyards have been rigorously sited. Soils are granitic to sedimentary. Clonakilla Shiraz-Viognier epitomizes the sheer potential of this district.
