8000 vintages of Georgian grape and wine experience to learn from

摘要

Lado Uzunashvili is a Georgian winemaker based in Adelaide. But it might be more accurate to call him an Australian citizen and a flying winemaker. Whichever way you look at it, he has incredible insight into the world's oldest wine producing nation.And he is keen to see the Australian wine industry benefit from Georgian viticulture and winemaking knowledge.WHEN Lado landed in Adelaide in late February he had a whole suitcase packed with warm winter clothes. The only trouble was, it was a sunny 35 degrees when he hopped off the plane.The clothes he had with him, which he'd packed for the Boston Wine Show (which was cut short by freezing winter conditions and temperatures as low as -28 degrees) were completely inappropriate.
