      Hosting An Event In A Wine EstateHosting extra-ordinary events such as a magical lamp-lit dinner in the vineyards or enjoying a unique dinner in a winery’s oak barrel wine cellar can be exciting. The Vineyards and atmosphere make such events memorable. Some events can be made unique by hosting them in a wine estate. One event that can be hosted in a wine estate is conferences and board meetings. Some wine estates have cottages, chalets and hotel rooms where guests can rest during break time or enjoy games from online casino sites after the rigorous conference sessions and board meetings. Another event that a wine estate can play host to is a product launch. The setting, views and ambience provide the ideal backdrop and frame for a quality product launch. The event can take place in the estate’s hall or vineyards. Wines and food can be supplied by the winery and restaurants. The unique events that take place in wine estates are weddings. This is a special day for the bride and groom and must be planned to be perfect and unique. Nothing is too much trouble. Every couple and every wedding is truly unique. The ambience created by the vineyards adds to the whole magical experience.

    • An Overview Of Wine Production Process
      An Overview Of Wine Production ProcessWine production is an old human activity that dates back to when man first started to farm the ground. Like every other agricultural process, wine production is a part of a people’s culture, heritage and economy. In this article, we will undertake an overview of the wine production process. Wine production begins with the harvesting/picking stage. The grapes are harvested when they are ripe. This can be done mechanically or by hand. After being harvested, the grapes are transported to the winery, where they are sorted and rotten ones removed before crushing.  The crushing and pressing process involves the crushing of the whole clusters of fresh ripe grapes harvested. This process used to be undertaken by human crushers in the past but currently, mechanical crushers stomp or trod the grapes into what is known as must. Mechanical crushers make the process hygienic. The next stage is the fermentation stage. Fermentation is the process of allowing the must to ferment naturally with the aid of wild yeasts in the air. At this stage, some wineries and vineyards may allow the natural fermentation to run its full course, while some might intervene by introducing a strain of yeast to more predict the outcome. Then the next stage is clarification and stabilisation. This involves the removal of insoluble matter like dead yeast cells (lees),  pieces of grape skin, pulp, stems and gums suspended in the wine after fermentation. After this stage then, the wine is ready for bottling or aging, depending on the choice of the winemaker or the type of wine being produced. Aging can be done in bottles, stainless steel or ceramic tanks, large wooden ovals, or small barrels called barriques. Wine production is a tradition and custom that has survived centuries and centuries of years. Modern technology has also aided in its production, but the wine produced is still the same sweet, savoury and customary enjoyed by so many all over the world.

    • A Guide On Varieties Of Australian Wines
      A Guide On Varieties Of Australian WinesAustralia grows more than 100 different grape varieties scattered in 65 distinct wine regions. Each region celebrates its unique climate and landscape by crafting some of the most exceptional wines in the world. This is a guide on varieties of Australian wines. Riesling  This is one of the most exciting and elegant dry white wines in the world. It is an aromatic light- to medium-bodied wine with a high acid presence and is best drinkable when it’s very young. Clare Valley, Eden Valley, Tasmania, Great Southern (WA) and Canberra District are best known for producing Australian Rieslings. Sauvignon Blanc  This wine variety hails from France but has been produced in Australia since the 1800s. To get Sauvignon Blanc, the grapes are picked when ripe and then fermented in stainless steel tanks to maintain freshness and vibrancy. The result is a tropical fruit expression with citrus tastes. It is popularly produced in Adelaide Hills, Margaret River, Tasmania and Orange. Chardonnay  Chardonnay is a wine variety that allows for experimentation. Australia makes lean and light-bodied chardonnay wines in cooler climates and fuller-bodied, rich and ripe versions in warm climates. Adelaide Hills, Yarra Valley, Tasmania, Margaret River, Hunter Valley and Mornington Peninsula have wineries that specialise in producing chardonnay. Rose  Rose is produced by crushing the grapes, and all the liquid is freely drained from the skins to the tank before being squeezed. The result is a wine balanced in acidity with high levels of purity in fruit aroma and flavour, readily produced in Yarra Valley, Tasmania, Langhorne Creek, and others. Pinot Noir  This is the type of wine variety that requires the early pressing of the grapes. Pressing is the process that separates the red juice from its skin. This early pressing gives the wine its flavour and structure before fermentation is completed. The result is a  full gamut of flavours that can fit into any culinary pairing. Shiraz  The most aromatic, elegant styles of Shira are grown in regions with warm days and cool nights and show jammy, dark berry and plummy fruit flavours. It is popularly produced in Barossa, McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek, Heathcote, Hunter Valley, Canberra District, McLaren Vale, Eden Valley and Mount Barker. These are the main wine varieties produced by many of Australia’s wineries and vineyards. Research is still on to improve their taste and come up with more varieties.
