The wine region of Barossa Valley

World icon of Australian Shiraz: powerful, silky, sun-drenched king red with notes of jammy blackberry, plum, dark chocolate, liquorice and a touch of sweet spice, enveloping tannins — Penfolds Grange and Henschke Hill of Grace as mythical bottles. Fleshy, spicy old-vine Grenache (up to 180 years), dense Mourvèdre, structured Cabernet as complement. GI northeast of Adelaide (~11,600 ha), hot dry climate, pre-phylloxera vines founded by Silesians in the 19th c.


The wine region of Australie du Sud

Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.

The word of the wine: Smooth

Said of a wine that has a mouthfeel reminiscent of the creamy texture of fats.
