Australia 100 – 2012 RRP and Stockists
NB – It is worth pointing out that my wife, Amelia Jukes, runs a company importing wines from Australia and New Zealand in the UK (called Hallowed Ground) and three of her wines appear in this year’s 100. As many of you will know I taste wine and decide whether or not it makes the grade on merit alone and, as stated on page three and page thirty-four, of the accompanying booklet a wine’s quality is the only reason for its inclusion in this list. This rule has served me well for 25 years of commentating on wine and I see no reason to change it now. You will note that I have never written up any wines in my paid columns for which there is any perceived conflict of interest with Mrs Jukes’s work in the wine business.
