[QUOTE="Marg's Man, post: 406233, member: 4085"] We've had a wine lake here for about 15 years now and we've getting cask wines that match anything you can get in a bottle. There are some terrible ones too. Very rogh reds (nicknamed Kanga Rouge) and acidic whites (Bondi Bleach). I've FINALLY been catching up with the Oprah Aussie shows and noticed the episode I just finished watching had a hot air balloon in the Hunter Valley ("Heart of the Australian wine industry") WRONG! It's the oldest area and they do some wonderful reds (including the legendary Grange Hermitage) there but forget their whites. Even the locals get their whites from elsewhere. The cask (or wine box) is an Ausralian invention. We had a laugh when some US Late Night show was talking about a Californian winery that was marketing their wine in this 'new' packaging. This was in the early eighties just after Marg and I were married. We just chuckled and sipped our Kanga Rouge from a wine cask we had two years earlier. [/QUOTE]
