The region of Coonawarra

May 31st, 2008 by admin

The Coonawarra region of Australia is famous for its Cabernet and Merlot red wines. As a red wine enthusiast I decided that is was an absolute must for me to visit the region while I toured Australia with my family. I had read various articles about Australian Coonawarra and how it had become an iconic Australian red wine and one of the benchmarks for the region. So we headed to the region and stopped at a vineyard called Evans Vineyard, which had been purchased from the Australian Wine legend Len Evans back in 1978. What was amazing was that the cold Southern Ocean had now receded by an amazing 80km but it still exerts a moderating influence on the climate of Coonawarra, contributing to the region’s ability to produce elegant and long-lived Cabernet and Merlot wines.
