Wine´s Down Under !!
Bienvenido, a nuestro blog de vino. Soy Daniel Harringon sumiller en Avinae Wine & Spirits . Con el tiempo, gracias a lectores como tú, éste espacio se ha convertido en uno de los blogs de vino más leídos en ingles. Gracias por estar a ese lado de la pantalla. Te animo a que pases al nuestro colaborando con tus comentarios y preguntando lo que te interese.
Nunca hemos tenido la pretensión de entrar en ránkings de los mejores blogs de vino de España. Ni cosas por el estilo. Desde que empezamos con Avinae Wine & Spirits ,Mallorca Wine Experience y ahora con Vinos de Mallorca siempre hemos querido dotar a nuestra web de contenido de calidad. Nos inspiramos en algunas webs inglesas que nos parecieron interesantes. La idea es que los miembros de nuestro club de vinos tuvieran en este espacio un rincón donde poder encontrar información útil. Vídeos sobre catas de vino, algunos consejos para aprender de vino, curiosidades sobre le mundo del vino, recomendaciones de vinos y de winebars en los que hemos estado (y nos han gustado), ideas para hacer enoturismo, etc. Hay posts que incluyen vídeos y hay otras entradas con sólo texto.
Wine for Thought:
Wine´s Down Under !!
Australia, The land of wine opportunity!!
So much to explore and to talk about when it comes to this wonderous place of viticultural adventure.
Australias 3 major regions are South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria
South Australia:
In Adelaide we can find the AWRI ( Australian Wine Research Institute ), a truly important institution dedicated to the advancement of Viticulture and Enology as well as having studied and developed better yeast strains, better more effective use of sulphur dioxide and methods to better control pH. Unsurprising that it is found in the largest, most famous wine making region in Australia.
South Australia is home to some of the most recognised sub-regions on the whole continent, some of my personal favourites are;
Barossa Valey: Internationally acclaimed and one of the most famous wine regions, Barossa is located northeast of Adelaide. The area is most known for Shiraz, and doesnt shy away from making some of the richest, darkest and full-bodied examples of this wonderful and historic red.
McLaren Vale: The Mclaren Vale also produces incredible Shiraz, as well as very high quality Grenache and has also dipped its creative toes in to producing interesting Tempranillos and Sangioveses. For me personally, what most excites me from the Vale are the Shiraz-Grenache blends. like intense and simplified homages to CNdP.
Clare Valley: To the north of Adelaide
