The Australian wine industry is hurting after the hike in tarifs for wine being exported to China - grapes being left in the vineyards, vineyards being pulled out. Tough times, showing that diversification of product mix and markets are important considerations these days...

“The average consumer won't notice a big difference between the wines they love and the up-and-coming [to adapt to #climatechange] alternative varieties that Ricca Terra sells - like Montepulciano, Fiano and Nero D'Avola. The grapes are hardier and often more planet-friendly too, requiring less water.” #Australia #wine #australianwine https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-62489056

@CatherineRussell2 After seeing you with your risotto I decided to give it a go. First time ever. It has worked out better than I expected especially with a little sip of wine that was left over. Jacobs Creek, Sauvignon Blanc AUS wine. I haven't been able to drink because of tablets. Only a week to go. It has been a few decades since I drank white wine. It was very refreshing.

Winemaker Dave Hohnen photographed outside his home on one of his several motor bikes. We made this in Margaret River last January on a brilliant trip.

I have been researching some non-french varieties #wine from the new world and they're extremely hard to find! I've seen #Australianwine has been doing some experimenting, none have become major varieties yet over there. Would love to try a #Vermentino or #Aglianico from down under! #winelover #winetasting #winegeek

The Claire is deservedly famous for its Riesling, but… have you tried their reds? Every time we go we come back with more reds than whites. It is ridiculously good value compared to The Barossa and The McLaren, the bang for buck is exceptional, and just like McLaren new grape varieties are taking off.
