Considerably cooler than the surrounding plains, the hills are washed in rain during winter months, and the peaks wrapped in fog. It is considered a high rainfall region compared to other Australian regions, but outside of winter the climate is warm and dry. Night time temperatures are the feature - notably cooler than the day when the sun sets. Worth noting is how the average rainfall increases the higher you go, with Mount Lofty picking up 1400mm on the old splash-o-meter compared to 850mm just 10K down the road in Charleston. This range of moisture and altitudes results in a variety of soils, but in general are sand and clay loam over clay subsoils. ... Read Full Article

Chicken Tagine - Stew is Stew Right?
Chicken Tagine - Stew is Stew Right?
In a world full of labels and where everything must be put into a category I found myself wondering if we haven't gone too far! Then I thought to myself wait, would I put Poison's 1988 Shut Up and Say AH album in the same category as Metallica's 1986 masterpiece Master of Puppets? NO I would not, sure if you Google metal they may both come up in the same search, but the reality is they're worlds apart in style and substance. It was this thought that filled my mind as I was cooking this weeks low and slow, sure I guess I was cooking a Moroccan stew but could I say it was in the same realm as a French Beef bourguignon? Hmm...No I could not. In the same way I couldn't, in good conscience put Steven Segal's 2004  Songs From The Crystal Cave into the same Blues genre as Bruce Willis' 1987 obvious classic The Return of Bruno.  As always enjoy with great vino and people you love.

A bit of shale and ironstone can be found, and the soil is acidic on average and rarely acidic.

The combination of climate and soil lends to superb cool-weather whites like Riesling (if you watch for mould), Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and crisp Chardonnays. Merlot, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon can also be found, with the grapes maturing

Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc is a green-skinned grape variety which originates from the Bordeaux region of France. The grape gets its name from the French word sauvage ("wild") and blanc ("white") due to its early origins as an indigenous grape in South West France. It is now planted in many of the world's wine regions, producing a crisp, dry, and refreshing white varietal wine.

In Australia

Here in Australia, particularly the Margaret River region, the grape is often blended with Sémillon. Varietal styles, made from only the Sauvignon blanc grape, from Adelaide Hills and Padthaway have a style distinctive from our New Zealand neighbours and tend to be more ripe in flavor with white peach and lime notes and slightly higher acidity.

Characteristics

Depending on the climate, the flavor can range from aggressively grassy to sweetly tropical. Wine experts have used the phrase "crisp, elegant, and fresh" as a favorable description of Sauvignon blanc from the Loire Valley and New Zealand.Sauvignon blanc
