THIS IS FUCKING SODA NOT WINE WHY THE FUCK ARE AUSTRALIANS SO BAD AT MAKING INFERIOR WINES

Suppliers make what the market demands.

>WHY THE FUCK ARE AUSTRALIANS SO BAD AT MAKING INFERIOR WINES

hmm

>SO BAD AT MAKING INFERIOR WINES

Thanks, mate!

don't you mean good at making inferior wines?

This post is really making me think.

This shit was everywhere like 10 years ago what happebed?

we keep the good stuff for ourselves and sell the crap to clueless burgers, same with beer

ITT: OP tries one bottle of unpretentious Australian table wine and declares all Australian wine inferior.

Look up Australian gold medals in the international wine challenge some time kiddo

thats what wine is. Alcohol for people who would rather be drinking soda

Meh. I use it to cook with.
Half a bottle of Pinot Noir in a pot roast, and no one is the wiser.

As opposed to... craft beer?

craft beer is alcohol for those who would rather be drinking Starbucks coffee

Australia are world leaders at inferior wines. They practically invented the cheap homogeneous mass market supermarket wine.

They also do OK at superior wines.

Other countries built up their own mass winemaking industries. When they first came out Australia was the only place that did that style of winemaking, eventually everyone else caught on and it became a lot cheaper to source local mass market wine than ship it from Australia.

its just fine when you're poor.

exactly. $11.99 for a 1.5L of not-great-but-drinkable wine? yes please.

soccer moms love that slop

it was fine right after I turned 21 and took like 8 months to work up to paying 9 or 10 dollars for a regular bottle. used to pick up one of those big boys they sell and spend all day in the bathtub on my days off work

Cheers cob

Their sweet red with a splash of seltzer is really good

Medals don't equal wine is gold you brainless fuckwit.

Discussing wine on Veeky Forums is like discuss philosophy with a turnip

>two giant ass cans for like 4 bucks

Good enough for me.

because new zealand wines are so much better. won many awards for their wines but its only those in the know are the ones that buy them...

Yep NZ is to Australia what Vietnam is to China. Poorer, lower wages, cheaper goods. Great for a holiday.

>shit terroir
>shit climate
>abuse of shuphur compounds
>shit harvesting
>meme le french grapes

pretty much that

>then why the fuck do they keep making them?

because there's nobody making wines in a 10000 mile radius

>then why they are exporting their fucking shit everywhere?

meme magic

I pay 1.95 € for 75 cl of a reserve red spanish that run circles around any australian table wine
If you can't improve quality, demand better prices

Im Australian and I only drink corona and yellow tail.

For the price they aren't terrible.
I can get a large bottle of the shiraz at my local grocery store for $8.

way to compliment them buddy.
if you want some really good aussie wine try Henschke hill of grace or any of their wine desu

isn't yellow tail what hamsters die from?

this

unless you pay £$£$£$£ you're drinking 'straya's leftovers

The 2016 merlot is unironically pretty damn good.

I haven't laughed this hard in a long time.

it's the craddle of fucking civilization tier alcohol, idort

australians are bad at literally everything.

>not getting master race 4 pack of 16 oz classic ice for 3.50
