The wine region of Australie du Sud-Est

Macro blending zone covering the southern half of the country (NSW, Victoria, Tasmania, parts of SA and QLD). Accessible, vintage-consistent brand wines: supple fruity Shiraz (blackberry, sweet spice), round Cabernet Sauvignon, gourmet Merlot, opulent Chardonnay (yellow fruit, vanilla), lively Sauvignon Blanc, lemony Sémillon. Status created for export and major international brands. From aperitif to everyday, an affordable, fruity expression of the Australian style.

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.
