Victoria Rising – Australia’s new cool

Victoria Wine Regions

Over forty new wines from Victoria, Australia, are coming through Vintages this year, including 20 released on Saturday, July 21st.   The WineAlign team had an opportunity to taste most of them.  It was a perfect opportunity to dig deeply into Australia’s new image as a producer of more than just shiraz and cute labels. Regional distinction is the new focus, alongside cool climate expressions and an expansion of the varietal repertoire.  Reviews from all WineAlign critics and wines to be found here.  In additon, both David and John have featured Victoria in their respective newsletters and came up with a few top picks.
