And lo, stars rose in the East

Article Abstract:

Safeway supermarkets wine buyer Liz Robertson found the supply of eastern European wine was inconsistent. The Hungarian merlot label C63 won a gold medal at the 1989 International Wine Challenge. Eastern Europe has cheap labour, enabling it to produce wine for supermarket prices. Bulgaria began campaigning in the UK in the 1970s and is sixth in the import table. Hungary subsidised the export of its wine by 30%. Some of the good wines are from wineries run by new world winemakers or by good local people.

Article Abstract:

Red wines from New Zealand are more successful since classic French grapes were grown and modern scientific techniques were applied to vineyard husbandry. Canopy management gives riper fruit. Sixty-five per cent is exported to the UK. It is the most expensive of the New World wines. Chardonnay is as complex as the variety of the wine regions. Malolactic fermentation, noble rot and new oak add to the character of chardonnays.
