Oldest wine region of Western Australia (1829, 890 ha) northeast of Perth: signature Chenin Blanc as king white (~1/3 of Australian Chenin), crisp and dry with citrus notes. Verdelho hailed as world's best by Jancis Robinson, dry and brightly tropical. Signature Shiraz as red king, fleshy and solar with ripe dark fruits, pepper and spices. Also Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.
The wine region of Australie de l'Ouest
Australian premium on Margaret River. Signature Bordeaux Cabernet-Merlot blends in red: deep and refined with notes of ripe blackcurrant, eucalyptus, cedar and graphite, firm tannins and great ageing, often compared to Médoc. Chardonnay rated Australia's best: taut, saline and mineral (lemon, hazelnut, brioche). Lively Sauvignon-Sémillon (citrus, cut grass).
The word of the wine: Alcoholic fermentation
Transformation of sugars into alcohol under the effect of yeast. These yeasts exist in their natural state in the vineyards and in the cellars. Artificial seeding with selected yeasts is however very often practiced.
