Australia: The Land of Oz

Australia: The Land of Oz
Sponsored by: Wine Australia

With a continent the same size as our country, but 1/10th of our population, Australia has now unseated France to take second place in wine imports to the US, behind Italy. The Aussies are said to possess the most dynamic and cutting edge wine industry in the world. In fact, "high-tech" is their middle name. How increasingly popular is their wine? Well in 1998 they exported 4 million cases of wine; last year, 18 million--just to the US.

Join Suzanne Barros, Eastern US head of Wine Australia, as she takes you through the wine bounty that is Australia.
