The map for cool climate wines is expanding, with more countries and regions gaining recognition as producers of quality wines.
Alongside this, a growing number of consumers are discovering the styles produced from grapes grown in countries that have a longer growing season, often with warm summer days followed by drops in temperature at night.
Laura Jewell MW, Wine Australia’s regional general manager EMEA, says Australia’s cool-climate wines are winning many fans.
“Alternative varieties can be found in many regions across Australia,” she says. “Examples from cool-climate regions include Grüner Veltliner in Adelaide Hills, Chenin Blanc in Margaret River, Gamay and Nebbiolo in Yarra Valley, Tempranillo and Vermentino in Mornington Peninsula and Gewürztraminer in Tasmania.
