The wine region of Mudgee
Historic Australian high-altitude region (450-1,000 m) west of Sydney: signature Shiraz as king red - fleshy and spicy with notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, chocolate, pepper and a eucalyptus touch, round tannins and generous alcohol. Structured Cabernet (blackcurrant, cedar) in renowned support. Ample Chardonnay and Sémillon in whites. Italian grapes (Sangiovese, Barbera) on the rise.
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: Oxidative (breeding)
A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
