		Mataro adalah nama lokal yang kini makin jarang digunakan di Australia dari grape yg mungkin lebih dikenal dg nama lainnya: Mourvedre.
		Grape ini sendiri sangat butuh sinar matahari yg cukup sehingga tidak akan mungkin bagus kualitasnya kalau ditanam di Perancis Utara, dan di Australia sendiri pun pokok pohonnya dipotong sedemikian rupa sehingga berbentuk segitiga terbalik - kira2 seperti bentuk "pruning" pohon teh di puncak, deh!
		Nah, Mataro ini yg menurut saya cocok sekali untuk mengisi gap tersebut.

		The grapes of the Bendigo area have from the earliest days been wine, not table, grapes, and to this day they are only minimally irrigated and ultimately handcrafted into premium wines.
		But the lasting legacy of grape growing and wine making in the Bendigo district is more to be found in those who benefited from the prosperity the gold rush produced while drawing upon skills and tastes acquired in their European homelands of Germany, Switzerland and France.
		This classification is shared with the Barossa, Clare, and Goulburn Valleys (inter alia), and distinguishes the Bendigo region from both the Sunraysia (Mildura) and Swan Hill-Kerang regions, with MJTs of from 23.0 to 24.9oC, and the Macedon region, with an MJT of 18.5oC.

	Spotlight on Mourvedre
		It used to be Mataro, a spotty teenager with a crap social life.
		And whereas most grapes produce a commercial yield in three to five years, you can be waiting as long as 10 years for Mourvèdre to deliver.
		Part of the reason that this has been so successful as a blending grape is that it provides a spicy, savoury structure that complements the richness of Grenache and Syrah grown in warm climates.

		The fruit is beautifully ripe, and complemented by the earthiness typical of the varietal.

		The grape can be difficult to grow and the risks involved in growing it seem to be a large part of why it is not more popular today.
		It seems to Hanes that this grape often comes with a patina of chocolate flavors — this may be a factor of how the grape absorbs the effects of aging in oak barrels.

		The procedure concentrates the sugars in the grape juice, and is usually used to make sweet wines, although one of the finest -- Amarone (which see) -- is usually dry.
		Burgundy is its home, and it has proven difficult to grow and vinify well elsewhere, but California and Oregon increasingly hit the mark (albeit with usually a somewhat different style), and wine makers in many other parts of the world are still trying.
