The wine region of Hunter Valley
Cradle of Australian viticulture (1825), 160 km north of Sydney. World signature: dry low-alcohol Sémillon (10-11°) with fresh citrus notes in youth, evolving after 10-15 years to candied lemon, toast, honey and beeswax, spectacular ageing. Medium-bodied "Hunter style" Shiraz, supple and earthy (leather, plum, sweet spices), capable of decades. Also Chardonnay and Verdelho.
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: Cuvée prestige (champagne)
Vintage or not, it is composed of a selection of terroirs and generally comes from the first press after eliminating the very first juices that come out of the press. The best known? Dom Pérignon, Cristal de Roederer, Grand Siècle de Laurent-Perrie, Louise at Pommery. In fact, all the houses and most of the independent winegrowers have their own prestige cuvee.
