The wine region of Limestone Coast

Cool-climate GI of south-eastern Australia, red terra rossa over white limestone. Coonawarra's signature Cabernet Sauvignon: classic reds with signature notes of pure blackcurrant, eucalyptus, fresh mint, cedar and graphite, firm tannins and long ageing potential — a world benchmark. Also spicy peppery Shiraz, round Merlot. Precise Chardonnay whites (citrus, hazelnut), taut Riesling (lemon, kerosene).


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: 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.
