Wine Region
This list of wine-producing regions catalogues significant growing regions where vineyards are planted. Wine grapes mostly grow between the 30th and the 50th degree of latitude, in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Grapes will sometimes grow beyond this range, thus minor amounts of wine are made in some rather unexpected places. In 2014, the five largest producers of wine in the world were, in order, Italy, Spain, France, the United States, and China. Countries The following is a list of the top wine-producing countries and their volume of wine production for the year 2014 in tonnes, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), which is an agency of the United Nations; this is the latest information available from the FAO. Their data show a total worldwide production of 31 million tonnes of wine with the top 15 producing countries accounting for over 90% of the total.

Clare Valley
The Clare Valley is a valley located in South Australia about north of Adelaide in the Clare and Gilbert Valleys council area. It is the river valley formed by the Hutt River but is also strongly associated with the roughly parallel Hill River. The valley is traversed by the Horrocks Highway and the towns in the valley along that route from south to north are Auburn, Leasingham, Watervale, Penwortham, Sevenhill and Clare. The geographical feature has given rise to the Clare Valley wine region designation, a notable winegrowing region of Australia. Geography The valley is formed by the Skilly Hills and Bungaree Hills on the west with the Stony Range rising on the valley's east. The Temperate Grassland of South Australia cover most of the area. History Pre-European settlement The original inhabitants of the Clare Valley were the Ngadjuri people. It is believed that they had major camping sites at Clare and Auburn, as well as other areas outside the valley. European ...

South Australia
South Australia (commonly abbreviated as SA) is a state in the southern central part of Australia. It covers some of the most arid parts of the country. With a total land area of , it is the fourth-largest of Australia's states and territories by area, and second smallest state by population. It has a total of 1.8 million people. Its population is the second most highly centralised in Australia, after Western Australia, with more than 77 percent of South Australians living in the capital Adelaide, or its environs. Other population centres in the state are relatively small; Mount Gambier, the second-largest centre, has a population of 33,233.

Grosset Wines
Grosset Wines is an Australian winery based in the Clare Valley wine region of South Australia. History Jeffrey Grosset graduated from Roseworthy College with an Agriculture degree in 1973 and an Oenology degree in 1975. Grosset Wines was established by Jeffrey Grosset in 1981. The winery and subsequently opened cellar door operates in Auburn inside a building previously used as a butter and ice factory in the early 1900s. Grosset was the leader of an eventually successful movement in the 1980s to only allow the use of the word Riesling on Australian wines that were made specifically from the Riesling grape. Until that point a significant number of Australian wines with Riesling on their label were made from other grapes, including Hunter Riesling and Shepherds Riesling (both Semillon), Clare Riesling ( Crouchen) and "Riesling" as a generic term for white wine, often in the form of very cheap Cask wine made from Sultana or Pedro Ximénez. Jeffrey Grosset was also a drivin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

South Australian Wine
The South Australian wine industry is responsible for more than half the production of all Australian wine. South Australia has a vast diversity in geography and climate which allows the state to be able to produce a range of grape varieties–from the cool climate Riesling variety in the Clare Valley wine region to the big, full bodied Shiraz wines of the Barossa Valley. Some of Australia's best-known wines like Penfolds Grange, Jacob's Creek, Yalumba and Henschke Hill of Grace are produced there, as well as many of Australia's mass-produced box wines.T. Stevenson ''"The Sotheby's Wine Encyclopedia"'' pg 578-581 Dorling Kindersley 2005 As with most agriculture in Australia, irrigation is vital to the success of the South Australian wine industry. History The earliest recorded evidence of vine planting was in 1836 by a settler named John Barton Hack in Chichester Gardens, North Adelaide. In 1838 George Stevenson planted a vineyard in Adelaide and may have been produci ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

List Of Wineries In The Barossa Valley
The Barossa Valley wine region is one of Australia's oldest and most premier wine regions.K. MacNeil ''The Wine Bible'' pg 792 Workman Publishing 2001 Located in South Australia, the Barossa Valley is about 56 km (35 miles) northeast of the city of Adelaide. Unlike most of Australia whose wine industry was heavily influenced by the British, the wine industry of the Barossa Valley was founded by German settlers fleeing persecution from the Prussian province of Silesia (in what is now Poland). The warm continental climate of the region promoted the production of very ripe grapes that was the linchpin of the early Australian fortified wine industry. As the modern Australian wine industry shifted towards red table wines (particularly those made by the prestigious Cabernet Sauvignon) in the mid-20th century, the Barossa Valley fell out of favor due to its reputation for being largely a Syrah from producers whose grapes were destined for blending. During this period the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
