So you are a New Zealand wine expat and you want to know what the best of the year of the ox is. It can be quite confusing and the reason is many wineries tend to use different terms for the same grape. For example, they may call their Riesling a speciality of the Riesling grape, but in Italy it's a different grape. It seems strange that two countries where the same grape have totally different systems for classifying the varietals.

I suppose it makes sense because no two vineyards will produce the same wine, from their climates to the way they have the grapes cut and stored. Each region will be unique and the micro climates will affect each varietal very differently. For example in South America they harvest their grapes in the early months of the year and then move to the cooler regions closer to the equator. This means that the wine from these vineyards is called a "juniper" rather than a "rosado" or a "rubia". This is because their main growing season is from May to August.

What Are The Bid Differences Between South American and Australian Wines?

This is one of the big differences between South American and Australian wines. Australia has cool summers and they like their wines a bit cooler than we do. The other major difference is the quality of the grapes. While South American grapes tend to be very sweet, the Aborigines of Australia tend to have very sharp and clean tasting wines with high acidic content.

In short Australia has a lot more choice than you would at first glance. You could say their reds are better than our reds but they are not. They have some great whites, which tend to be more dry than other whites and have delicious aromas. And I am not just talking about the alcohol aromas as white wines tend to have some floral ones as well.

What Is The Plenty Of Variation Between The Varieties?

As I said earlier it is the year of the Ox. This means that there will be plenty of variation between the varieties. The best way to get a feel for what is the specialty in this year is to taste a range of wines from each winery, and see what you like. If you have not tried much white wine, then it is probably best to try something you are not too used to, like Chardonnay, Pinot Noir or a Zinfandel.

If you have never had Chardonnay, then you are in for a real treat. It is probably best to visit a farm in Australia where the vines have grown for the last year. If you like the taste of white wine, then you will love this one. A Chardonnay is usually drier than other red wines, and this is the perfect day when you drink it. It pairs well with either seafood meats, cheeses or fruit.

What Would Be The Similar Pinot Noir Wine?

A Pinot Noir is a wine that are similar to a Chardonnay, but it has a fruity, sweet taste. The best time to drink this is just before you go to bed, as it goes well with spicy foods. It pairs great with grilled steaks and seafood. However, you have to keep in mind that this should be consumed quickly, as it loses its flavor after a few hours.

A Zinfandel is another very popular choice, although it is not as popular as some of the others. It is made from a variety of grapes, including the famous Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a fruity aroma, almost berry, which is why it pairs so well with sausages, mushrooms, cheeses and most meats. A good bottle of this wine should be stored in a cool dark place, as it tends to fade when exposed to direct sunlight. If you want to try a new sparkling wine, then it would be best to try one made from Moscato Wine grapes. Like all varieties of this grape, they can be used to make sparkling wines.
