Publishers Text

As fresh, open and honest as a glass of Hunter Semillion, and as deep, rich and complex as a Barossa Shiraz, this is the most thorough contemporary book about the renowned Australian wine scene yet available. Tim White, respected wine writer and wine judge, examines all the important contemporary wineries and growing regions, and reveals what inspires and motivates growers and viticulturalists. He includes details of the oenology, viticulture and 'terroir', and suggests what to expect next. He provides a history of Australian winemaking, from its first difficult beginnings in Sydney, through the boom and bust cycles, the fortified wine explosion, the wine cask, the impact of migrants; to the current export boom.
