Australian Wines
Australian Wines
by: Chris Burd
Australias wine industry has boomed in the past ten years. Employers have had to triple their staff numbers to cope with the demand for Aussie wine. Considering the lower average national population of Australia, compared to say the United States or even South Africa, 30,000 (2001) workers is pretty high.
One of the main reasons for the demand on this skillful industry is that it has won an international reputation for quality and value. Australian wines have won many highly sought after international awards and labels and many innovative Australian winemakers are sought internationally for their wine making expertise.
Wine regions throughout Australia have continually had high ratings especially over the past four years. Most of these regions and especially the East and South coasts (New South Wales and Victoria) are averaging 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. Second to the brilliant winemakers, and a close second, is the great climates / weather that certain regions have for cultivating vines.
Wine is very much a part of the Australian way of life, closely associated with both business and leisure. Wine consumption is often linked to the country's outdoor-oriented lifestyle as well as to the cosmopolitan urban way of life of the bulk of the Australian population.
Australia exports more wine than that that is sold domestically. Out of a total of approximately 919 million litres bottled, 516.5 million litres is exported. The largest export market has been the United Kingdom and second has been the United States.
Researchers from the University College London have come up with a few very interesting facts. They found that drinking alcohol (including wine), even in small amounts, might be associated with higher cognitive ability, especially for women. You would be silly not to have a drop every night! I think Aussie are reasonably bright, it must be all the great wine they produce.

Ch Le Gravillot - Lalande de Pomerol
Many of the Bordeaux 'satellite' appellations have emerged in recent years to compete with the big names of the Medoc, St. Emilion, and Pomerol. This lovely wine from Lalande-de-Pomerol is made by Vincent Brunot, who took over the Chateau in 1998. The vineyard is only 10 acres in size and is 100% Merlot. Grown on the clay/gravel of the area, the wine has exceptional tannin for this 'soft' varietal. The Brunot family are all enologists and have greatly improved the quality of this wine to a level that is world-class. This dry red wine is aged for 18 months in new French and American oak barriques. A luscious wine with plenty of oak. We had the 2000 vintage and it went flying out the door with many upset customers looking for more. Get an ample supply before it is all snatched up again! Elegant gift from France!
