Deeply coloured, structured reds with a deep ruby robe, smooth tannins and preserved acidity under warm conditions, with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, spice and blackcurrant-leaf herbal notes. Round palate, fruity finish. Productive and heat-tolerant, it produces high-volume reds in California (Central Valley), South Africa, Australia, Argentina, Mexico and Israel. Californian variety created in 1936 by Harold Olmo at UC Davis (Cabernet Sauvignon × Carignan).
Australia's 2nd wine state with diverse regions. Iconic Hunter Valley: a Sémillon unlike any other, straight, low-alcohol dry whites with vivid citrus when young, evolving over 10-20 years toward honey, toast and lanolin. Medium-bodied Hunter Shiraz, spicy and earthy (leather, red fruits). Also round Chardonnay and aromatic Verdelho.
