Bargain Brand Success Linked to Devaluation of Australian Wine Market
What happened
The market perception of Australian wine is reportedly being negatively influenced by the success of one bargain brand among American buyers. This brand's proliferation has led to the conclusion among some shoppers that wines from Australia must be of low quality. The report notes that genuine, small-scale independent producers offer ambitious wines of high quality, though they are harder to find.
