The wine region of Pyrenees

Cool-climate GI of western Victoria (Australia, 2000): signature Shiraz as red king — rich and full-bodied with hallmark notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, pepper, liquorice, dark chocolate and a violet floral touch, velvety finish. Structured Cabernet Sauvignon with notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, tobacco and earthy-herbal nuances, firm tannins and good ageing. Dominant reds (~73%), dry sunny climate tempered by cool nights, varied soils bordering the eponymous range.


The wine region of Victoria

Australian diversity from cool to temperate climate. Yarra Valley and Mornington: fine, silky Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), taut, mineral Chardonnay. Heathcote: structured Shiraz with black fruits, pepper and chocolate. Rutherglen, fortified capital: opulent sweet Topaque and Muscat (raisin, caramel, fig, roast notes).

The word of the wine: Clarity

The state of translucency of a wine. A clear wine is not cloudy (which is a defect).
