The wine region of Riverina
Vast hot region of southwest New South Wales (Australia): Botrytis Sémillon signature as king sweet white — opulent with signature notes of honey, candied apricot, mango, quince, orange marmalade, saffron and a wax touch (Sauternes style, De Bortoli's iconic Noble One, 1982). Shiraz, Cabernet, Merlot and Durif as sunny reds. Chardonnay, Verdelho, Gewurztraminer, Moscato as gourmand whites. GI, flat plains and hot Mediterranean climate, irrigation.
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: Wooded
A set of aromas brought about by ageing in barrels (usually oak). This can be pleasant when, in small doses, it brings a touch of spice, roast or vanilla to an already constructed ensemble. When the violent woodiness dominates the wine, it is quickly tiring. Easily identifiable aromatically, it is sought after (to the point of abuse) by the makers of coarse wines. New World manufacturers and, alas, some French winemakers use oak chips to impart the woody taste, which is tantamount to artificial flavoring.
