Barbera (芭巴拉) 原产意大利的品种中, 数Sangiovese (桑娇维塞)和 Barbera (芭巴拉)在澳大利亚最为成功。 Barbera（芭巴拉）非常适应澳大利亚的水土，显然在这种干燥、炎热的气温气候条件下，它更散发出浓烈的李子果香。 Cabernet Franc (白苏维翁) Cabernet Franc（白苏维翁）大多用于与 Cabernet Franc（加本力苏维翁）或Merlot （梅洛）混合，Cabernet Franc（白苏维翁）自身洋溢着野草莓和樱桃的水果芳香。它的风味比Shiraz（设拉子）略微清淡一些，但并不失葡萄美酒的清香。在热天喝感觉很棒。 ...

Chardonnay (霞多丽) 这个经典的品种19世纪20年代就被引种到澳大利亚，但是一直到了70年代才成为全国最为广泛种植的品种。如今，Chardonnay (霞多丽)是澳大利亚适应性最强的白葡萄品种，无论在最寒冷还是最温暖的地区，它都能结出一些品质超群的果实。 随手拿起一瓶澳大利亚Chardonnay (霞多丽)，你都会发现它品质优良，略带写香草或橡木味，更洋溢成熟甜瓜、葡萄柚或桃子的芬芳。来自温热岛屿地区（如Murray Darling (墨累河岸地区)，Riverland (河地)和Riverina (滨海沿岸)）的产品常常带有热带瓜果香。而出自寒冷地区（如Tasmania (塔斯...

Barbera (바베라) 이태리 품종 중에서 호주에서 가장 큰 성공을 이룬 품종은 Sangiovese (산지오베제)와 Barbera (바베라)입니다. 자두맛의 과일향이 지배적인 Barbera (바베라)는 호주 기후와 생산지에 적합하고, 분명하게도 뜨겁고 건조한 기온에 잘 적응을 하였습니다. Cabernet Franc (까베르네 프랑) Cabernet Franc (까베르네 프랑)은 대부분 Cabernet Sauvignon (까베르네 소비뇽)이나 Merlot (메를로) 혼합되어 만들어집니다. Cabernet F...

Chardonnay (샤도네이) 이 고전적인 포도 품종은 1920년대 후반에 처음 호주에 왔으나, 호주에서 가장 많이 재배된 품종이 된 것은 1970년대에 이르러서였습니다. 오늘날, Chardonnay (샤도네이)는 가장 서늘한 지역에서부터 가장 더운 지역에까지 재배될 수 있는 뛰어난 품종의 예에서 알 수 있듯이, 호주에서 가장 다용도로 쓰일 수 있는 화이트 와인 품종입니다. 오늘 Chardonnay (샤도네이) 한병을 사보면 흔히 바닐라/오크 향이 약간 나고 잘익은 멜론/그레이프프루트와 잘익은 복숭아 향이 물씬 풍기는 호...

Cabernet Franc (カベルネ・フラン) カベルネ・フランは、兄分に値するカベルネ・ソーヴィニヨンやメルロとブレンドしま す。これは実は少々残念なことなのです。というのも、カベルネ・フランはそれ自体で野生のイチゴやチェリーの風味を十分に有しており、シラーズよりはやや 軽めのスタイルではあるものの、暖かい日に飲むのにぴったりのワインを造るからです。 Cabernet Sauvignon (カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン) 一般的に黒ブドウの中で最も気品が高いとして知られているカベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン。旧世界で築かれた誇り高い一流のステータスに由来しているのでしょう。 ...
I'm really happy that BoozeMonkey is starting to grow a bit now and that more people are signing up and getting involved, but can anyone tell me why there are so may glum monkeys on the site? 
I use a few other networks like Facebook and that sort of thing, and everyone puts a photograph on their profile (even if it's not a photograph of themselves). I don't really care what people look like, but it feels more difficult to start chatting to someone without a mug shot or something which says something about their personality. I don't think Hank can really swallow half his own face, for example, but that photo tells me something about him. And Jambo... can his nose really be that big?
The other thing is that you can't see when someone comes online if they don't have a photo. And I know from talking to Matt that he's bringing in CHAT soon (I hope I didn't steal your thunder, Matt... hehehe) so if no-one knows you're online, they won't be able to chat to you. 
Matt said something about a photo competition recently. I wonder if that would persuade anyone to add a profile pic? Does anyone have any thoughts? Is everyone on BoozeMonkey shy? Or just too lazy to add a profile photo?
Hey, that's a great idea. I'd love to see some pictures. Cool.
I love surfing. I mean REALLY love surfing. I love everything about it.
The only thing I don't love about surfing is blue-bottles. For anyone who doesn't know, a blue-bottle is a blue jellyfish with painful stings which up bring up weals on your legs like whip marks. And there are never just one or two in the water. When they're there, there are thousands and thousands of them, so you just can't escape.
just go to The Red Cross website [http://www.redcross.org.au/vic/services_emergencyservices_victorian-bushfires-appeal-2009.htm] and there you will find full details about how you can donate to the Red Cross effort.
Thanks Matt. This is a great idea. I hope you succeed in raising the money.
