The influential wine critic Robert Parker, who's known for his love of Bordeaux wines, once wrote that Australia's Penfolds Grange "has replaced Bordeaux's Pétrus as the world's most exotic and concentrated wine."
While France's Bordeaux region dominates the taste buds and wallets of most wine collectors, clearly there is also plenty of fun - and investment opportunities - to be explored elsewhere.
Because Australia is bigger than Europe, it has a range of soils and climates in which its winemakers can work, making wines that are as exceptional as they are unique, with incredible regional character.
