The Wines of Austria
In recent times, Austrian wine has been experiencing a surge of interest around the world. In Australia, consumers are confidently discussing the merits of grüner veltliner and blaüfrankisch where five years ago only wine aficionados were aware of the particularities there.

German Riesling Renaissance
In December 2013, Wines of Germany announced in London that it had officially recognised six Riesling Fellows “for their dedication, passion and love of German Riesling.” Sounds like a bit of PR?

The Summer of Riesling
With Christmas and New Year behind us, it’s time to put away the bubbly and boisterousness and settle back in to a more moderate tempo.

The Scenic Route to Tuscan Shiraz
It is not often that you come across a little known and exciting pocket of shiraz. But a spot of early autumn tourism in Italy led to just that. It was a bit off the beaten wine track, and, like stumbling on a cache of porcini for a risotto, was an unexpected and delightful surprise. More
