AUSTRALIAN WINES
PRAISED BY AMERICANS GOOD MARKET PROSPECTS NEW YORK, Feb. 27. Mr. Dow, who is forwarding a detailed report to the Government on wine tasting, gave the Australian Press Association a resume of some impressions of experts. The sparkling burgundy, 'be said, was generally considered to bo excellent,, the claret was held to be comparable to the Italian Chianti type, the white ports were compared to European, and the inuscatelles were called davorous and full-bodied wines. The ruby port was said to be something for Australia to be proud of. The burgundy was a beautiful color and a splendid wine. The three hocks were considered as Moselle types. It was the unanimous opinion, said Mr. Dow, that Australian wines would, in time, gain American favor and recognition, while the whole line in general was found to be very good. A market could bo assured if the Australian products could meet the Californian wine in price, but they would have to undersell European products.
