For this issue of Australian Country we’ve been on the road again, starting in Western Australia where we visited the wonderful chateau nestled in the vines at Fraser Gallop Estate and an amazing sensory garden created by winemaker Cathy Howard at Whicher Ridge.

We also detoured to a character-laden house in the Adelaide Hills, a gorgeous fruit farm in the hinterland of Queensland’s Sunshine Coast and the Toowoomba home of antique dealers Brenton and Sharon Kinnear. Our producer profile comes from north-eastern Victoria where the dairy farming Crooke family has diversified into splendid bespoke ice cream manufacture.

Still in the kitchen, our recipe feature focuses on tomatoes and we head down on the farm at Young in the NSW South-west slopes. We’ve an amazing photo essay on an outback Queensland wedding and our travel takes us to Andalucia in southern Spain, the home of tapas, fiestas and splendid Moorish architecture. We’ve an inspirational gift guide to help you prepare for the festive season and our service feature focuses on accessories and accoutrements for hosting an afternoon or high tea.

So be sure to join us for our new issue, on sale now.
