of wine. The Chinese beleive that red wine has many healt benefits and they also associate red wine with
ood fortune as red is considered their favourite colour.
According to recent reports from the Wall Street Journal, Australian Rieslings are now considered among

the Australian variety is well up there with its European counterparts.
Whilst Australia is renowned for its shiraz blends or creamy oaked chardonnay, we must not forget that
Riesling is one Australia’s principle grape varieties.
What is often overlooked is the fact that the ‘Ancient German Riesling’ variety was first introduced to
Australia back in the early 19th century by the Europeans and it has gradually found its ‘natural’ home in
