Knowing Australian Wines by :
Alfred Gomez
Drink the wine that you like.
Sounds obvious, doesn't it? Sometimes, however, we get so caught up in
what is the right wine and what is the wrong wine that we forget the
most important thing: we have taste! We have our own individual taste
and love drinking the wine we love to drink. Sure, certain wines
traditionally match certain foods and flavors, but ultimately you are
the judge of what you like to drink, no matter what the enologists say!
Australian wines are made from a careful perfection of fermentation and
patience to produce great tasting wine. The country's vast land produces
different kinds of wines where tasting each wine makes it harder to
believe that they were made from the same country.
Here are the different types of Australian wines that are most popular
on the market today:
- White wines
have extraordinary and a unique taste that
still stands out among the others. They vary in color based from what
part of the country they were made. Since Australia is an enormous
country, temperature may vary too, which produces Australian white
wines that vary in different color hues of yellow when poured in a
glass. The deeper the hue, the richer the flavor is. The technique of
swirling the glass around and sniffing it will give you a faint smell
of fully ripened grapes.
- Red wines
have an unbeatable classic taste. The countries
different climate conditions produce different Red wine tastes. Warmer
climate regions produce more flavorful, richer and warmer tastes.
While cooler climate regions produce lighter, cooler and more delicate
tastes.
- Fortified wines
have a longer process of fermentation
compared to any other variety of wine. It is usually blended with
brandy to emphasize the wine's alcohol taste. This process will also
help retain the flavor and color of the wine. The concentration of
flavor and aromatic smell depends on the number of decades it was left
to mature. Warm climate regions of the country usually have an
advantage in producing fortified wines.
- Dessert wines
are distinguished in their textures. Its a
honey-like and glutinous texture that is made by a natural occurring
fungus. These natural fungus draw in moisture, which causes the
increase in sugar concentration, acidity and fruit flavor. The wine is
best served along with fruit desserts, blue and soft cheese that
balances acidity and creates an excellent taste.
Australian wine makers are grasping the fast and dynamic technology
to produce a world-class variety of wines. They are using their
expertise and variety of techniques to satisfy consumers and introduce
them to a whole new taste experience.
White with fish, red with meat? Not always.
Everyone knows that fish meals should be accompanied by white wine and
meat dishes should be accompanied by red wine. But adhering to strict
wine rules takes the fun out of choosing wines. Trust your own sense of
taste. A wine should do one of two things: complement or contrast. Not
all fish dishes are cooked in the same way, so why should they all be
accompanied by white wine? Consider the dish, the way it is cooked, the
spices and seasonings added, and then choose a wine that complements
those elements or contrasts, that is if you want a more intense
experience. Learn the art of Wine Tasting.
