Day 2: Perth Mint Tour with lunch in Swan Valleys Sittellas Winery

Perth Mint is Australia’s largest fully integrated, innovative precious metals enterprise, providing premium gold, silver and platinum products and services to markets throughout the world.

Owned by the Western Australian Government, they are the world’s only government-owned and guaranteed precious metals enterprise.

While servicing and promoting the gold industry for more than 120 years, they have forged a reputation for quality and created markets for refined precious metal products across the globe.

Founded in 1998, Sittella is one of Western Australia’s newest, privately owned wineries. Owners Simon and Maaike Berns have the support of an enthusiastic team of professionals to create and produce high quality traditional wine styles, from both their own and contract vineyards throughout the Swan Valley and Margaret River Region and the Deep South.

The winery is named after a small Australian bird, the Sittella, which abounds in the nearby tree-lined Swan River.

Nestled among the vines on a gently winding road near the upper reaches of the Swan River lies the Sittella winery & restaurant, a jewel of the historic Swan Valley. In this tranquil setting with valley and vineyard views from the verandah, visitors are invited to enjoy fine food and award winning wines.
