A Nice Drop
Thursday, February 21st, 2008By: Priscilla Fox
When referring to a ‘nice drop’ in Australia, it could be interpreted as stumbling awfully close to the cliff face of a mountain. It is however more pleasantly associated to an alcoholic beverage of the grape kind.
The wine industry in Australia is considered the world’s fourth largest exporter of this in demand juice which can be represented in any possible way that the humble grape can be exploited.
From the Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon to the Jacob’s Creek Chardonnay as well as the sparkling Pinot-Noirs from the highlands of Tasmania, there is a taste for every palate.
Almost every state in Australia including Queensland has its own wineries and it is certainly a must when visiting the country to fit in a tour to sample the delightful flavours.
Not only can you trek our lands to see the wonderful mountainous views but to make the trip complete, take an intoxicating bottle of Australian wine in your backpack and you’ll have created the ultimate nice drop experience.
