Discover the grape variety: Couderc 4401
An interspecific cross made in 1884 by Georges Couderc (1850-1928) between chasselas rose and rupestris. This direct-producing hybrid was multiplied much more in the south-west of France and in the Loire Valley, and in some cases was even used as rootstock. François Baco (1865-1947) and Vincent Malègue (1830-1915) also used it as a progenitor. - Synonymy: red bird, tank, Terray hybrid, malafosse, oazo rukh, sakhotin (for all the grape variety synonyms, click here!). - Description: small to medium-sized bunches, cylindrical-conical, winged, more or less compact, sometimes with small green berries, medium-sized stalks remaining green when ripe; small, spherical berries, beautiful bluish-black skin, very pruinose, pulpy, with coloured juice.

The wine region of Barossa
Barossa is one of the six wine-producing zones of SouthAustralia, and arguably the most recognized name in the Australian wine industry. Barossa wines have attracted more international awards than any other region in the country. It is divided into two sections: the western Barossa Valley (effectively the Warmer valley floor) and on the eastern side the cooler, higher altitude Eden Valley, both of which have a distinct Geographical Indication (GI) formalized in 1997. Grapegrowing conditions vary immensely across the wider Barossa zone and this is reflected in the markedly different wine styles produced here.
The wine region of Australie du Sud
SouthAustralia is one of Australia's six states, located (as the name suggests) in the south of the vast island continent. It's the engine room of the Australian wine industry, responsible for about half of the country's total production each year. But there's more to the region than quantity - countless high-quality wines are produced here, most from the region's signature Grape, Shiraz. These include such fine, collectible wines as Penfolds Grange, Henschke Hill of Grace, Torbreck The Laird and d'Arenberg The Dead Arm.
The word of the wine: Harmonious
Balance of the different organoleptic elements of a wine. This harmony is linked to the typicity of each wine. The sweetness of a sweet wine is an element of its balance, whereas a Sancerre or a Chablis will be asked to be lively and dry.
