Today Gary Vaynerchuk tastes the wines from Australia that were scored very highly by Robert Parker in the latest Wine Advocate. Sit back and enjoy this very special episode from WLTV. Also Gary has a few prizes today!
Quite the reverse is true of Château Chunder, which is an appellation contrôlée, specially grown for those keen on regurgitation; a fine wine which really opens up the sluices at both ends.
Real emetic fans will also go for a Hobart Muddy, and a prize winning Cuivre Reserve Château Bottled Nuit San Wogga Wogga, which has a bouquet like an aborigine's armpit.
Old Smokey 1968 has been compared favourably to a Welsh claret, whilst the Australian Wino Society thoroughly recommends a 1970 Coq du Rod Laver, which, believe me, has a kick on it like a mule: eight bottles of this and you're really finished. At the opening of the Sydney Bridge Club, they were fishing them out of the main sewers every half an hour.
Many British wine connoisseurs pooh-pooh Australian table wines. This is a pity as many fine Australian wines appeal not only to the Australian palate but also to the cognoscenti of Great Britain.
Black Stump Bordeaux is rightly praised as a peppermint flavoured Burgundy, whilst a good Sydney Syrup can rank with any of the world's best sugary wines.
Château Blue, too, has won many prizes; not least for its taste, and its lingering after burn.
yes after about 24-30 episodes i find him unwatchable. but why not a video channel gary i am sick of linking vids. Y not make playlists for cabs and chards and pinots and your australian issues.

Old world wines tend to be earth-driven and new world-wines are usually more fruit-driven.

once you get past the really annoying start, Gary's great, especially for those of us who like new world wines. Though shalt seek out Hobbs!
