Re: Some pics from Carrara Vineyards

My wife mentioned that she does think "Black Swan" is a Western Australia label. It sound sto me like an "export" label.

The wine however may come from anywhere. A lot of Eastern and Western State wineries like to buy the superior Barossa reds ( ) and use them in their red wine labels.

"South Eastern Australia" refers to South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales and means 85% of wine in the bottle came from that area. This means the wine in the bottle could come from more than a dozen different regions ge Riverland (SA), Barossa (SA), Clare(SA), Hunter Valley (NSW), Murrimbigee etc

I apreciate your comments on "Mossy Oak".

I find it very interesting the difference in marketing between the USA and Australia. If we tried to market something like "Mossy Oak" in Australia it would be a dismal failure (IMO). But I guess the USA with a population of 300 million and millions of hunters and shooters, a sizable niche market exists. And it might be good entry wines for new wine consumers.
