The wine region of Canberra District
High-altitude Australian region (500-900 m, NSW) with continental climate: signature Shiraz as king red — medium-bodied, spicy and peppery with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, liquorice and a floral touch (often co-fermented with Viognier, Côte-Rôtie style), fine tannins and signature elegance. Dry Riesling as white king — vibrant and chiselled with citrus, green apple, white flowers and a mineral tension. Cabernet and Chardonnay as backup. GI, hot days and cold nights.
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: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
