I Love the composition of the first one Ron - composed of crushed grapes isn't it? LoL. And the SA varieties are my very favourites. The second one is a classic - I love it.

Thanks John, yes, I believe there are a few grapes within...sadly the Barossa isn't visited as much as it used to be. There are so many outlets selling wines at reasonably prices in Adelaide these days, there is no need to.

Wow! Impressive list, Ron, and the first ones are a hoot. LOL
Have you ever heard of scuppernongs and muscadines? Those are the types of grapes native to the deep south. Sounds dinky compared to those of AU, but there's no comparison to the taste. It's like nectar.

Not sure, Ron. I thought they made only sweet wine, but I don't know.
