Surely the influx of international wines has contributed much to the local wine scene. Would there be a drive to create more off dry and off beat rielsings without the increased availability to European examples for instance? Would our pinot noir have improved so much with exposure of the market to the wines of Burgundy? <br /><br />Like most winos, I have no trouble drinking local wines - as long as they are well made and interesting. I do have a problem with marketing campaigns and ideas that are at once prescriptive and restrictive. <br /><br />One final point - perhaps local wine makers and critics, should do what Tim Kirk recently did - and host dinners, open to the public, where they showcase their favourite Australian wines.Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020445581810054798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4004303233686020381.post-16145601194864983402010-11-22T21:43:26.222+11:002010-11-22T21:43:26.222+11:00Amen

What about...Sound to me like xenophobic insecurity. What about a campaign to get people to look beyond TWE or Constellation for a month and "Buy from the underdog" small winemakers rather than invent a foreign "enemy". I wonder what the market percentages are for corporate vs imports are?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13731893895831242898noreply@blogger.com
