French hybrid created in 1963 by Joannès Seyve.
Northernmost wine region of Queensland (northwest of Brisbane), warm subtropical climate tempered by altitude and cool nights, sandy and clay soils. Verdelho is the leading white (among the world's best, award-winning): dry and aromatic with intense notes of tropical fruits, citrus, melon, herbs and a honeyed touch, preserved acidity. Shiraz and Chardonnay are the major duo, reds with ripe berries and supple tannins. Tempranillo and Saperavi complement.
