MADE OUR WAY TASTING 24.09.18 COPENHAGEN #madeourway Introduction Welcome to our Made Our Way tasting, where we celebrate the new, the bold and the extraordinary wines of Australia, bringing together the winemakers who are crafting the new iteration of Australian wine brilliance. Our winemakers are curious by nature, perfecting old concepts and playing with new ideas to create something extraordinary. No technique goes untested, and no convention goes unchallenged. There’s freedom, creativity and a desire for excellence in the Australian wine community. That’s what makes our wines so exciting. Australian wine has a long and cherished reputation for dynamism and innovation, while Australia’s unique climate and landscape have fostered a fiercely independent wine scene, home to a vibrant community of growers, winemakers and viticulturalists. We have gathered some of them here today to show you their wines, their traditions and their innovations and we would encourage you to take this opportunity to talk to the people behind the wines, to open your minds to their winemaking philosophies, be they terroir hunters, minimalists, naturalists or in search of the sustainable. Having such a range of talents together in one room makes this event unique. Please share your discoveries with us and your fellow tasters. Join the online conversation with the hashtag #madeourway. We’ll be tweeting from @Wine_Australia and on Instagram from @wineaustralia. #aussiewine #madeourway 1 Wine regions of Australia Darwin WESTERN AUSTRALIA NEW SOUTH WALES 1. Swan District 30.
