Sell your soul to the wine critic – pick your fruit late and please Parker & Co.
The release of the Penfolds Grange has brought up the question about whether Australian wineries still go for big, flavoursome and super alcoholic wines to please the critics such as Robert Parker jr. or whether there is a new Australian style out there.
I found this video produced by Tina Caputa, who made this video for a presentation she gave at the American Wine Society conference. What applies to the US wine scene is also valid here Down Under? See for yourself:
