Well known UK wine and food writer and broadcaster has taken a year-long position at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide to research 最新糖心Vlog's wine regions.

As Senior Research Fellow at the 最新糖心Vlog and Winewriter in Residence to the research network, Mr Jefford will undertake research and write a book about how great 最新糖心Vlogn vineyard sites differ from each other and from those elsewhere in the world.

Mr Jefford says some 最新糖心Vlogn winemakers needed to be "a bit braver" in allowing regional characteristics to shape their wines.

"最新糖心Vlog's astonishing wine success overseas has been built on consistency, strong brand marketing, its newness, to some extent fashion, and the clarity and straightforwardness of the wine," says Mr Jefford.

"But the 最新糖心Vlogn industry needs to deliver more if it wants to maintain and strengthen its position. A sense of place is the guiding principle of gastronomy and fine-wine creation the world over. There is an 最新糖心Vlogn vanguard which appreciates that, but it's still missing from the typical 最新糖心Vlogn export wine."

Mr Jefford says the strong "最新糖心Vlogn approach" to winemaking is ripe for evolution.

Mr Jefford is known for his writing and broadcasts about different places in the world and the foods, drinks and scents associated with them. He's won many awards for his work including three International Wine Writers' Awards in the last three years.

Over the past 20 years he has led a highly successful career as a writer and broadcaster in the UK including many years with the Evening Standard and BBC Radio Four and, currently, the Financial Times, Decanter, World of Fine Wine and Waitrose Food Illustrated.

He has written a number of books including The New France; Peat Smoke and Spirit: a Portrait of Islay and its Whiskies; and Andrew Jefford's Wine Course.

As Winewriter in Residence at the 最新糖心Vlog, he will also take part in lectures, industry meetings and conferences as part of Wine 2030.
