    Hello Giorgio!

    I hope your XC70 went back home in a straight line after 'sampling' the wine in the vineyard?

    I live in Perth/Western Australia.
    In the middle of the Australian South West wine growing region.
    Swan Valley, Margaret River. 20 mins drive and Im tasting wines at the cellar door

    We produce some of the best chardonnays and cabernet sauvignon in Australia and perhaps the world. I too collect wine and drink plenty of it too.

    If you produce Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, you have the grapes for a great sparking.

    Two years ago we have made a sparkling wine ( method champenoise ) only 100 bottles only with chardonnay and it is very good. We make the "degorgement" only when we drink the wine ( without "liquer de expedition ) in nature kind ( dosage zero ).
    Last year we have lost all the production cause the "powdery mildew".
    This year everything is ok with the moment , we have kill the powdery mildew with biodynamic metod , we have read book of Steiner , Joly and something of Podolinsky the man who have diffuse the biodynamic in Australia.
