“Such impressive freshness to the aromas of pure mulberries, blackcurrants, blueberries, redcurrants and a swathe of roasting herbs, such as bay leaf and sage. Iodine and nori, too. The French oak is nicely subsumed already and there’s fruit purity that really sings here. The palate has a wealth of rich and ripe blue and black-fruit flavors with plenty of extract and depth on offer. This is an impressively bold, smoothly honed and focused cabernet. Fine, polished tannins frame the long finish. Drink over the next decade and more.” – James Suckling, 97 Points

Australia

Vine cuttings from South Africa were brought on the First Fleet (1788).

Nowadays, vineyards in Australia are grouped into Geographical Indications (GI), and classified into Zone, Region and Sub-Region.

There are more than 60 wine regions in Australia.
Australia’s wine regions are mainly in the southern, cooler parts of the country. The three major wine regions by volume are South Australia, New South Wales, and Victoria.

South Australia and New South Wales are known for their warmer climate varieties such as Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. Victoria is known for cool climate-loving Pinot Noir.
