Why Australia for Fine Wines?
Australia, the land DownUnder, has become a major and exciting force in international wines. Australian wine is taking the world by storm, due to the quality of the grape stock combined with the skill and experience of our winemakers. This enables us to produce a superb and wide range of Australian wine styles.
Our island continent features wines as varied as its terrain. Most people know of Australian Shiraz - that fruit-forward wine now known and enjoyed around the world. These fabulous 'fruit bombs' represent but a small part of the overall Australian winemaking scene.
Australia is sometimes described as the perfect wine producing country. It has a land mass as great as the United States or Western Europe, with a diverse climate from cold to cool to warm, and a wide variety of soil types, including the famous Coonawarra terra rossa. These natural advantages coupled with the irrepressible free-spirited character of the Australian people, has encouraged Australian winemakers to build on the great traditions of winemaking, to create delicious wines of stunning quality, diversity and uniqueness.
Wines from Australia are usually denoted by their grape variety. Aside from Shiraz, Australia also produces fine Chardonnay, Semillon, Riesling, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon and plenty of Cab-Shiraz blends plus some distinct Aussie wines. And don't forget our Australian sparking whites and reds - just the wines to keep your taste buds tingling.
Delicious concentrated ripe fruit, harvested at the peak of perfection is easier to obtain in Australia than almost anywhere else in the world. Australian wines are a delight on your palette with their different aromas, flavours and taste sensations crafted from each of the different grapes, blends and regions.
Please come and visit us DownUnder, but if you don't have the time just now, take a Wine Tour around our amazing country through our AussieWinesOnline.com website and experience the people, places and our incomparable wines.

Twomey Cellars Napa Valley Merlot
"Even better than the 2001 is the 2002 Merlot, a blend of 99.4% Merlot and .6% Cabernet Franc. The good news is that there are 10,845 cases of this sex pot of a Merlot. An exotic perfume of pepper, herbs, black cherries, plums, and raspberries is accompanied by an exciting texture, a plush, fleshy palate, and a concentrated, long heady, moderately tannic finish. This wine should improve over the next 2-3 years and last for 10-14. Very impressive! This is a top-flight single-vineyard wine aged completely in French oak, which is in total contrast to the wines made at Silver Oak." RP - 94 (Subject to Availability) TCNM02 TCNM02

Giving Beads and Bead Gifts

All Doors Are Open to Bead Creativity I know, it probably seems too early to start talking about the holidays in August, but if you are like me and make many of your gifts every year, it's already time to think about the end of the year and get started on some projects. And handcrafted beads can express your creativity and celebrate occasions throughout the year on various gift-giving occasions. I've been thinking lately about all the ways to use beads other than jewelry. If you look around a
Recycle wine corks to give a plain basket new life
Tue, 05 Aug 2008 04:21:30 PDT
When some friends of mine moved recently, they were eager to get rid of as much as they could to avoid having to pack it and move it. They had a giant bag full of saved corks that never got used for a project and asked me if I wanted them. I was eager to add them to my own cork collection and vowed to actually use them for a project. As luck would have it, I set them on a shelf next to a plain old wooden basket and inspiration struck. I could cover that boring basket with corks and make a charm
