Fusing Burgundian winemaking with Yarra Valley terroir…
Guy's chat…
July 2011
Back from glorious Italy, its warm summer and refreshing well priced white wines. We visited the Veneto region at the foot hill of the Southern Alps. It offers spectacular landscapes at every corner. It’s also the home of Proseco, the every day sparkling wine that is symbolic with summer. Like most Italian regions the “Northerners” are very proud of their food culture. This is the home of risotto, goat cheese, great pastas and pizza of course, all at very affordable prices. In fact, the food in general is cheaper than in Australia. One of the differences I noticed between Australian restaurants and European ones would be that often the ones from the old world have been family own for generations. They don’t seem to spend to much on décor or architects and therefore able to keep their prices in check. The pruning is in full swing, slower than usual due to rainy days which we and the vines don’t mind, after ten years of drought. Business as been good considering what retailers are going thru. This is an opportunity to thank you for your support, at every occasion ask for Wedgetail of course!
Keep an eye on your email - watch for our winter special on great reds. We have a couple of bin end specials in the pipe works too.
Cheers
