Brown Brothers Australian Wines
Lovers of wine know that some of the best wines are produced in the so-called “new world” such as Australia and South Africa. It’s no longer the case that the “old world” wines, traditionally from France, are better. In fact, the phrase, “new world” is not very appropriate when you consider the number of years that some Australian wine makers have been in business. For example, the Brown Brothers have been producing grapes and wine in Australia for many years. The actual vineyards date back to 1885 when John Francis Brown started cultivating ten acres at Milawa, Victoria, Australia in a partnership with his father. In 1896 John Francis Brown bought out his father and named the vineyard, “Brown Brothers”. He hoped his brothers would join him, but they never did.
Despite various problems, both economic and with pests ruining the vineyards, Brown Brothers expanded over the years, producing fortified wines such as Muscat and Port as well as Shiraz, Tokay, Malbec, Pedro Ximines, Riesling and Golden Chasselas. John Francis passed the running of Brown Brothers to John Charles Brown, his son, but it’s John Francis Brown’s picture that’s been printed on every label since 1970.
Tarrango is a unique slow-ripening Australian grape variety which was created in 1965 at the Horticultural Research Station at Merbein, Australia by crossing the Portuguese red grape variety Touriga Nacional and the white sultana table grape. The wine has good acidity but is low in tannin. Named after the small township of Tarrango in the Mallee area of Victoria, Brown Brothers have been making wines from Tarrango since 1980 and, in recent years, a small amount of fruit has been fermented in the same manner as used in the production of Beaujolais.
The Tarrango wine has light flavours of ripe cherry, raspberry, redcurrant and subtle hints of spice. It’s a light red wine made from the tarrango grape variety. This wine is sometimes called, “Australia’s answer to Beaujolais”, and is best served chilled. The most suitable food to eat with tarrango wine is either a spicy Indian curry which blends wonderfully with the fruitness of the wine, or, alternatively, a spicy Italian sausage pizza!
With such excellent new grapes and wines coming from the “new world” wine makers, it’s easy to see that the “old world” have a battle on their hands for the palates and wallets of wine lovers. Wine buyers are becoming ever more sophisticated and a bottle of “cheap red plonk” will no longer hold their interest. It’s to the dynamic new world wine producers such as Brown Brothers and their interesting new wines that attention is being turned towards.
