Wine royalty joined 300 wine lovers on the Hobart waterfront yesterday to talk about the growing cool climate wine industry worldwide and where it is headed. Leading UK wine expert, and wine adviser to the Queen, Jancis Robinson, yesterday welcomed delegates with a short talk about the cool climate wine regions of the world, reports The Mercury. “I am not here to pontificate about Australia’s cooler climate wines,” she told delegates. “But one of my hugest pleasures in the past few years has been trying the new wines from cooler parts of Tasmania and Victoria.”
