[Brian Allen]

"french wine" is a 90:10 against crap shoot. Less that ten per cent of EUrinal winemakers have ever studied chemistry and/or any science at a tertiary level.

As compared to the around 90% of Australian and New Zealand winemakers who hold advanced degrees and who actually understand and control the chemistry of what occurs in the process.

FACT: Aussies put consistently better wines in "wine casks" [Plastic bags inside cardboard boxes] than the freanch on average sell as "premium" product!

Buy Australasian wines and be satisfied 100% of the time!
