Aussie wines thrill at inaugural wine school

Wines from Down Under were described as “thrilling” and “exciting” at yesterday’s first Australian Wine School in London. Speaking at the event, Tim Atkin MW said: “Australia is more exciting today than at any point in my life as a wine writer.” Atkin was joined by commentators Andrew Jefford and Nick Stock to discuss Australia’s soils, geology, climate as well as viticultural and winemaking developments, before conducting a tasting of Australia’s signature wines. The event was held by Wine Australia, reports The Drinks Business.
