Villa Premier is a fine upscale hotel right in El Centro. You will love it. It is quiet but you also can access the Buenaventura next door for more action if you please.
You will find a broad selection of wines at the nicer restaurants. We do not drink California wines while in Mexico because they are not a very good value do to taxes. In fact they are crazy expensive. We mostly order wines from places like Chile, Argentina, New Zealand. The Champagnes do not seem to be anymore expensive in Mexico than what we pay for them in the US. Believe it or not there are some fabulous Mexican wines but you want to get recommendations from the restaurants. Casa Madera is one Mexican winery that we really enjoy. They have a nice inexpensive chardonnay as well as a reserve that is great. They also produce a nice cab. We did not really start exploring Mexican wines until the past couple of years but we have been pleasantly surprised. Note, I said that they are good but not necessarily cheap. We also typically go to the Mega store or Costco and buy some booze and champagne for the room. I hope that helps.
I failed to answer your question about Australian wines. I am not very well versed in Australian wines but know they make some great wine and I have enjoyed several. I am fairly confident you will find some Australian wines on the menu and most likely a Shiraz. As I recall, Trio, La Palapa, Vista Grill, Hacienda San Angel and Cafe de Artiste all of extensive wine list.

If you and your significant other enjoy good food, fun and wine I am confident you will have a great time in PV. We plan many of our meals with sunset. This is particularly true for the restaurants with outside seating such as La Palapa, Vista Grill, Barcelona and Hacienda San Angel because the sunsets are the most beautiful you will find anywhere in the world. I could make a book of nothing but pictures of sunsets in Vallarta.
Perfect. To relax and unwind is our first priority, but we definitely plan to get out and see / do / experience what we can during our trip. Your suggestions have been most helpful, thank you! :D
Also is the best for a therapy.
