The wine region of Pyrenees
Cool-climate GI of western Victoria (Australia, 2000): signature Shiraz as red king — rich and full-bodied with hallmark notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, pepper, liquorice, dark chocolate and a violet floral touch, velvety finish. Structured Cabernet Sauvignon with notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, tobacco and earthy-herbal nuances, firm tannins and good ageing. Dominant reds (~73%), dry sunny climate tempered by cool nights, varied soils bordering the eponymous range.
The wine region of Victoria
Australian diversity from cool to temperate climate. Yarra Valley and Mornington: fine, silky Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), taut, mineral Chardonnay. Heathcote: structured Shiraz with black fruits, pepper and chocolate. Rutherglen, fortified capital: opulent sweet Topaque and Muscat (raisin, caramel, fig, roast notes).
The word of the wine: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
