Victoria:

Victoria is a one of the most important wine producing regions in Australia. The wine industry was jump started by the discovery of gold in the area, but as the gold ran out the area would rely more on the wine as a source of revenue. Victoria is the smallest and southernmost region in Australia excluding Tasmania. Near the coast (Yarra Valley) the climate is cooler where Victoria is known for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. As you move further in land, the sun beats down creating better conditions for Victoria's Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. In the Northeast corner of Victoria are grown enticingly sweet Muscat and Tokays, which are a specialty to Victoria.

Brut:

A French term meaning "crude" or "raw". Used widely for sparkling wines to indicate one that tastes bone dry. Particularly dry wines may also be labelled brut natur(e).


Cava:

Cava began when Don Jose Raventos, traveling across Europe from Spain selling red and white wine stumbled upon a sparkling wine in the region of champagne. So fascinated by this drink, he returned to Spain and ready to attempt his own sparkler. Later importing Champagne equipment he produced the first Methode Champenoise sparkler in 1872. Using secondary fermentation like the French, Raventos had created Cava. After discussion with other winemakers in the region, it was agreed that Penedes was to become the Champagne of Spain, and the rest is history. In the present, Cava can be found brut nature to Sweet, or in rare cases a Cava rose. Note than any sparkling wine made by tank or bulk method is not a Cava.
