Darling Wine Estates
The wine estates of the Darling Wine Route continue to delight more and more tourists every year. The wines produced in this region are of a fabulous quality, thanks to the beautiful weather and soils. Local labels include Tukulu, Darling Cellars and Groote Post. Many of the wine farms offer tastings and tours as well as delicious meals to accompany their different wines.
Dubbed the “Flower of the West Coast”, Darling is known for being home to huge array of floral species, which litter the landscape and make it truly breath-taking in its beauty. These flowers can be seen while spending time outside, whether you are walking, hiking, horse riding, cycling or simply enjoying a picnic with this as a gorgeous backdrop.
