As I write, I am enjoying a glass of Rosemount Grenache/Shiraz blend. Quite nice....not French.
Moving to California next month. So many wineries, so little time.
I agree with you about Aussie wines and they are incredible. I am living in Australia at the moment and the variety is amazing. If only the public knew how much they backed us and how little they get in return...(no free trade agreement yet) Then more people would be visiting Australia and drinking their wine. I have a good feeling that things are about to turn around.
