How a ‘Wine Tasting’ takes Shape
First ..
A bottle of each wine is ordered, as a sample, from the
from the distributor. Carol then samples each wine from a separate
glass, taking care to cleanse her mouth after each taste, and ‘crib
notes’ are taken for each sample as to; mouth feel, heavy/light,
berry type, acidity, softness and whatever other taste might be
present no matter how subtle. Bottles are then ‘corked’ and Reds put
in a dark cool place overnight .. Whites are refrigerated.
The same process is repeated the next
day as changes evolve within the human condition from one day to the
next.
Now a food or two is added to the
‘notes’ that would work well with that wine and a recipe begins to
develop. Adjustments are made as to recipe contents while constantly
sipping the wine as a ‘benchmark’. After about five days menu with
wines is set ! |
William Jacob first
surveyed the Barossa Valley in South East Australia
prior to 1840.
The creek was named Jacob’s Creek when William and his brothers built small
cottages, that still stand, overlooking the creek.
In 1846 a German
immigrant, Johann Gramp, purchased land near the creek and a year later he
planted the Barossa Valley’s first vineyard on the banks of Jacob’s Creek
and his Ironstone Winery still stands.

Jacob’s Creek
is the #1 Australian Wine worldwide with record sales of
4.5 million cases sold in 2000 and has also experienced “explosive growth”
in North America – a 70% increase in 2000 alone. This winery
has been singled out as one of the “hot brands” with the highest growth
rates !
Let’s face it –
Wineries these days are “not shy” in what they say about
themselves in a marketing situation and what that means here is that
Jacob’s Creek produces consistent yet affordable wines designed for
everyday drinking.
Jacob’s Creek
designs wines for folks who judge quality by the taste
rather than by the price !
