Storing & Serving Storing Wine should be stored in a cool dark place away from direct sunlight. If the closure is cork the wine should be stored on its side in order to keep the cork moist, this prevents the cork from drying out and shrinking. If this happens air will enter the bottle and the wine will oxidise. Screw cap wines can be stored in an upright position. Serving temperature Glasses Using the correct glasses can be very beneficial in ensuring your wines smell and taste at their very best.Utilise a glass that will allow customers to aerate the wine. This is done by swirling the wine around the glass. It’s important not to overfill, roughly a third full should suffice and will allow the wine to breath, improving aroma and taste. Try to store glasses the right way up to avoid air stagnating inside them producing a musty odour. 6 Sparkling wines: Well chilled 6-10C (43-50F) Sweet wines: Well chilled 6-8C (43-45F) Light/mediumbodied white: Chilled 7-10C (45-50F) Medium/full bodied oaked white wines: Lightly chilled 7-10C (45-50F) Light-bodied red wines: Lightly chilled 13C (55F) Medium/fullbodied red wines: Room temp: 15-18C (59-64F) WINE SERVING TEMPERATURES SELECTING THE PROPER GLASS Full-bodied red wine Light-bodied red wine Rose or spicy red wine Sparkling wine Light-bodied white wine Fortified sweet wine
Argentina There are many different varieties of grapes cultivated in Argentina, reflecting the country’s many immigrant groups. The French brought Malbec, which makes most of Argentina’s bestknown wines. ... Torrontés is another, typically its grape is mostly found in the provinces of La Rioja, San Juan, and Salta and is the fifth largest producer of wine in the world. Argentine wine, as with some aspects of Argentine cuisine, has its roots in Spain. During the Spanish colonization of the Americas, vine cuttings were brought to Santiago del Estero in 1557, and the cultivation of the grape and wine production stretched first to neighbouring regions, and then to other parts of the country. Until the early 1990s, Argentina produced more wine than any other country outside Europe, though the majority of it was considered unexportable. However, the desire to increase exports fuelled significant advances in quality. Argentine wines started being exported during the 1990s, and are currently growing in popularity, making it now the largest wine exporter in South America. 7

Australia Australia is the 4th largest wine exporter in the world and wine is produced in every single state. There are over 100 grape varieties planted down under, which include Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The South Australian wine industry is responsible for most of the production of wine in Australia. In recent years, the Tasmanian wine industry has emerged as a producer of high quality wines. In particular, the Tamar Valley has developed a reputation for its Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which are well suited to the cooler Tasmanian climate. Queensland is also developing a wine industry with over 100 vineyards registered in the state. Some notable wines are produced in the high-altitude Granite Belt region in the state’s extreme south, production is centred on the towns of Stanthorpe and Ballandean. 10 Riverina Hunter Valley Perth Hills Margaret River Barossa Valley Coonawarra

Chile Chile has a long history as a New World wine region. It was the 16th century when the Spanish conquistadors brought Vitis vinifera vines with them as they colonized the region. In the mid-19th century, French wine varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Carmenère and Cabernet Franc were introduced. In the early 1980s, a renaissance began with the introduction of stainless-steel fermentation tanks and the use of oak barrels for ageing. Wine exports grew very quickly as quality wine production increased and the number of wineries has grown from 12 in 1995 to over 70 in 2005. It is now the fifth largest exporter of wines in the world, and the seventh largest producer. The climate has been described as midway between that of California and France, with the most common grapes being Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Carmenère. So far Chile has remained free of the phylloxera louse, which means that the country’s grapevines do not need to be grafted with phylloxera-resistant rootstocks. 13

France Produced throughout all regions of France, production of French wine equates to between 7–8 billion bottles each year. It is the second-largest wine-producing country in the world (4,607,850 tonnes) and traces its history to the 6th century BC, with many of France’s regions dating their wine-making history to Roman times. The wines produced range from expensive wines sold internationally to modest wines usually only seen within France. Two concepts central to the better French wines are the notion of terroir, which links the style of the wines to the locations where the grapes are grown and the wine is made and the Appellation d’Origin contrôlée (AOC) system, replaced by the Appellation d’Origin Protégée (AOP) system in 2012. Appellation rules closely define which grape varieties and winemaking practices are approved for classification in each of France’s several hundred geographically defined appellations, which can cover regions, villages or vineyards. 18

Germany German wine is primarily produced in the west of Germany, along the river Rhine and its tributaries, with the oldest plantations going back to the Roman era. It is the 10th-largest wine-producing country in the world (920,200 tonnes) and approximately 60 percent of the German wine production is situated in the federal state of Rhineland-Palatinate, where 6 of the 13 regions (Anbaugebiete) for quality wine are situated. Germany has about 102,000 hectares (252,000 acres or 1,020 square kilometers) of vineyard, which is around one tenth of the vineyard surface in Spain, France or Italy. The total wine production is usually around 1.2 billion bottles of which white wine accounts for almost two thirds of the total production. 24

Italy Italy is the world’s largest producer of wine, and is home to some of the oldest wine-producing regions. Its contribution is about a quarter of global wine production and through its exports, it is the most popular purchased wine in the world. Grapes are grown in every region of the country and there are more than one million vineyards under cultivation. It’s wine making history dates back to the Etruscans and Greek settlers before the Romans planted their own vineyards in the 2nd century BC. This greatly increased Italy’s area under vine, using efficient viticultural and winemaking methods, and pioneered large-scale production and storage techniques such as barrel-making and bottling. 26 21

New Zealand New Zealand wine is produced in several mostly maritime, cool climate wine growing regions. Like many other New World wines, it is usually produced and labelled as single varietal wines, or if blended the varietal components are listed on the label. The most famous wine in New Zealand is Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, and more recently its dense, concentrated Pinot Noir from Marlborough, Martinborough and Central Otago. While New Zealand wine traces its history to the 19th century, the modern wine industry in New Zealand began in the mid-20th century and expanded rapidly in the early 21st century, averaging 17% per annum in the first two decades. In 2017, New Zealand produced 285 million litres from 37,129 hectares (91,750 acres) of vineyard area, about three-quarters of which is dedicated to Sauvignon Blanc. Nearly 90% of its total production is exported, chiefly to the United States, Britain and Australia, reaching a record NZ$1.66 billion in export revenue in 2017.

South Africa Dating back to 1659, the first South African wines were produced in Cape Town by its founder Jan van Riebeeck. Access to international markets has led to new investment in the South African wine market which is concentrated around Cape Town, with major vineyard and production centres at Constantia, Paarl, Stellenbosch and Worcester. There are about 60 appellations within the Wine of Origin (WO) system, which was implemented in 1973 with a hierarchy of designated production regions, districts and wards. WO wines must only contain grapes from the specific area of origin. “Single vineyard” wines must come from a defined area of less than 5 hectares. An “Estate Wine” can come from adjacent farms if they are farmed together and wine is produced on site. 35 Stellenbosch Constantia
