The wine region of Cowra
GI in New South Wales (1,250 km² in the Lachlan Valley, Central Dividing Range, brown sandy loam to clay soils, continental climate with hot summers and cool winters). Chardonnay has been the Australian white king here since 1972: generous with yellow peach, ripe fig and French oak notes, evolving towards honey and brioche. Shiraz is the full-bodied red king with dark berries, plums, peppery spices and a chocolatey touch, silky tannins and a long finish.
The wine region of Nouvelle-Galles du Sud
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.
The word of the wine: Côte des Bar
This is the name given to the vineyards of the Aube, which are closer to Burgundy, and some of the wines produced here bear witness to this proximity. The pinot noir dominates, the meunier is practically absent. Two crus have become references: Riceys, where a rosé without bubbles is also produced, and Montgueux near Troyes, renowned for its Chardonnay.
