AndrewHOST
Part of the world, yes.
AndrewHOST
But that landed us on Sunday, which was Father's Day, and we treated ourselves to a roaming lunch, didn't we? Down the main street of Rutherglen.
AndrewHOST
Yeah, so we started at Grace, beautiful little French restaurant, which we'd been there before with Michael and Pud, and Tony was quite impressed, weren't you? Yeah.
AndrewHOST
Love it.
Dean DruceGUEST
But then on top of that, we use a lot of wine casks.
Dean DruceGUEST
You know, being in the heart of Rutherglen, you know, we use a lot of those Rutherglen barrels, a lot of the Barossa barrels.
Dean DruceGUEST
You know, that would be a fair chunk of what we use.
Dean DruceGUEST
But, yeah, it's predominantly bourbon and wine.

Dean DruceGUEST
So we enjoy living where we are.
Dean DruceGUEST
We are very much rural Australia, but this is where the best barley in the world gets grown.
Dean DruceGUEST
You know, we've got some of the best barrels over the road in Rutherglen.
Dean DruceGUEST
You know, we are immersed in whisky-making territory.
GerryHOST
There you go.
GerryHOST
This is in the Rutherglen region.
GerryHOST
Local citrus botanicals and wine influence gives the spirits a distinctly Rutherglen character.
GerryHOST
Oh, goodness, I'm tired today.
GerryHOST
Rutherglen.
GerryHOST
Rutherglen? I was going to say Ruthergren.
GerryHOST
Rutherglen.
GerryHOST
Rutherglen? Yeah, sports fans.
Paul MurrayHOST
Now, perfect example.
Paul MurrayHOST
There's a golf club in Rutherglen, which is part of the electorate that Helen Haynes has, the city of Indi, or the seat of Indi, which is very close to the border in Victoria.
Paul MurrayHOST
7.30 again went and spoke to exactly the type of group who you would think would have received this sort of money, because the money was there to, among other things, fix up community and sporting infrastructure.
Paul MurrayHOST
But of course, Labor had no interest in that seat, so guess what happened?
speaker_6NARRATOR
At the 100-year-old Rutherglen Golf Club, asbestos still lines the walls and white ants gnaw at the wood.
speaker_7SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We can't do anything because there's asbestos under here.
speaker_7SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So as soon as we start to take that off, that's a major cost, major headache.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
around food and wine.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
Like I will go either in Australia or overseas, whether it's up to Rutherglen for a weekend and stay at the local caravan park, which I did earlier this year, and then do all the wineries, eat at great places.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
Or I've been lucky enough to be able to go to, you know, France and Spain and Greece and, you know, Mexico, all over the place.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
And I will plan around visiting and exploring a wine region.

Meg BrodtmannHOST
The universal and then, yeah, we'll use that for the.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
Yeah.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
So this is, I mentioned before I was up at Rutherglen.
Warwick TiernanGUEST
We were up at Rutherglen earlier this year.
CameronAUDIENCE
We thought, do we put her under the knife at 11? We didn't think she'd make it to Christmas, to her birthdays, to New Year, to her 12th birthday.
CameronAUDIENCE
And then we planned a week off to go to Rutherglen to a B&B.
CameronAUDIENCE
We decided to make her comfortable and go without her because if we were four hours away, we'd have no resources.
speaker_13AUDIENCE
And
Russel HowcroftHOST
No.
Ross StevensonHOST
Yeah, and I remember we went to do the broadcast from De Bortoli at Rutherglen.
Ross StevensonHOST
Mm-hmm, yes.
Ross StevensonHOST
And saw the beautiful Rutherglen Rail Station, still perfectly preserved, it just didn't have any railway line associated with it.
Ross StevensonHOST
It was our bike track.
Ross StevensonHOST
Right, and I like Geoff.
John SzaboHOST
The Yarra Valley.
John SzaboHOST
Shiraz Central, the Pino Coast, the Muscat of Rutherglen, and the King Valley.
John SzaboHOST
So we're going to use that same framework to take you through the state region by region.
John SzaboHOST
And just a little side note here, Sarah, actually, I think it's worth pausing on something before we dive into those specific regions because...
9 MINS LATER
John SzaboHOST
You can pop down there for a day's visit to these magnificent
Stephanie DuboudinGUEST
wine regions.
John SzaboHOST
But a little further away from Melbourne, let's go up to the Muscats of Rutherglen, the fourth destination.
John SzaboHOST
This is up in Victoria's northeast.
AndrewHOST
It's most widely grown in California.
AndrewHOST
Then Rutherglen, Australia, where sometimes they blend it with Shiraz.
AndrewHOST
They call it Derif in Rutherglen.
AndrewHOST
And then there's a little bit in Israel.
AndrewHOST
But it really found a foothold in California.
James StewartHOST
She is a director and fourth generation shareholder of one of Australia's most recognised family wine businesses, the Brown Family Wine Group.
James StewartHOST
Now, Angela is also the sales and marketing director for the historic All Saints Estate, based in Rutherglen, which Angela co-owns with her siblings.
James StewartHOST
Now, for those of you who don't know the Brown Family Wine Group, we are talking about a business that was founded in Millewa, Victoria, and is now a portfolio of wine brands, including Brown Brothers, Pirie Tasmania, Devil's Corner, Tamar Ridge, and Innocent Bystander.
James StewartHOST
For more than a century, the Brown family has built a business based on innovation, brand building, and great value wine production.
