Australia Vineyards Presenting and promotion Australian Vineyards and Winemakers Jane Brook Wines Jane Brook wines have been available in selected wine retailers, restaurants and hotels in Western Australia for twenty years and since March 1997 have been distributed throughout Western Australia by the professional team at West Coast Wine Cellars. Distribution in the eastern seaboard of Australia is handled by Peter Tsoukalas of Australian Partners in Wine in Sydney and the A.C.T. The export market has exploded for Jane Brook over the last twenty years and the wines are now exported to Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Dubai, the U.K. and the United States. In search of innovative marketing tools, Jane Brook looked to the Internet and in June 1995 became the first Australian winery to have a home page on the World Wide Web. The processing of wine begins with the harvesting of the fruit which may be either by hand or alternatively by machine. At Jane Brook the fruit is harvested entirely by hand during the coolest time of the day and then cooled in our refrigerated winery. This ensures that our fruit is in undamaged, excellent condition before crushing. During the ripening period mid January - March, maturity analyses of Baume`, pH and Titratable Acid are performed to plot the progress of the fruit. The level of ripeness is determined by hydrometer or refractrometer, which measures the total soluble solids. In grape juice this is essentially all sugar, and this is then expressed in Brix or Be`. 1 Be` = 1.8 Brix, 1 be` equates to approximately 1% v/v of alcohol, hence fruit harvested at 12 Be` or 21.6 Brix produces a wine of approximately 12% v/v of alcohol. The fermentation process involves the yeast converting grape sugar to ethanol. All wine is fermented within stainless steel tanks with the exception of Chardonnay which undergoes fermentation in both stainless steel tanks and barrels. One major factor effecting the quality of Jane Brook wines is that all fermentation is conducted within a fully refrigerated winery where the temperature is maintained at a constant 18 degrees Celsius. This is in addition to the individual refrigeration controls on each tank. The effective control of the rate and temperature of fermentation and storage of the finished wines is critical to the success of Jane Brook premium wines. 229 Toodyay Road, Middle Swan, Western Australia 6056 Phone: +61 8 9274 1432 Fax: 1800641211 Web: http://www.janebrook.com.au
