The wine region of Great Southern

Australia's largest wine region on the south-western coast (200 km wide): Riesling signature king white — dry and taut with notes of citrus, lime, fresh herbs, chiselled minerality and long finish, signature 10-20 year ageing. Emblematic Shiraz king red — medium-bodied with signature notes of liquorice, spice, black pepper, black cherry and plum, Northern Rhône style. Cabernet and Chardonnay also successful. 5 sub-regions (Albany, Mount Barker, Frankland, Porongurup, Denmark).


The wine region of Australie de l'Ouest

Australian premium on Margaret River. Signature Bordeaux Cabernet-Merlot blends in red: deep and refined with notes of ripe blackcurrant, eucalyptus, cedar and graphite, firm tannins and great ageing, often compared to Médoc. Chardonnay rated Australia's best: taut, saline and mineral (lemon, hazelnut, brioche). Lively Sauvignon-Sémillon (citrus, cut grass).

The word of the wine: Volatile acidity

Acidity resulting essentially from alcoholic fermentation and formed from acetic acids in the free state.
