**Adelaide Hills** ... — a cool-climate wine region in the hills just east of the city of Adelaide in South Australia. It is one of Australia's leading sources of elegant, restrained styles. **Wines & grapes** — Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay are widely planted, along with Pinot Noir, and the cool conditions also make it a fine base for sparkling wine. Aromatic whites and cooler-climate Shiraz are made as well. **Character** — Elevation brings cooler temperatures and a longer growing season than the surrounding warm plains, preserving acidity and delicacy. The wines are known for their freshness, bright fruit and finer structure, offering a contrast to the bolder reds of nearby regions such as the Barossa and McLaren Vale.
