Is Australian wine worth a try? What wines do they do best?

Is Australian wine worth a try? What wines do they do best? Just started drinking wine a couple months ago, trying to become the type of wine snob that can taste something and tell you what region it is, never heard of wine snobs drinking Aussie wine though

    If you're asking this question, you're a long way off knowing anything about wine at all. You wouldn't know a good wine from a bad wine, let alone where it came from.

    Hard no. Don't care if it's barossa or yarra or otago it's all shit. Contrarians have been hyping it for years and if you disagree they say you're (pick any or all)

    >poor
    >ignorant
    >european
    >stuck in the 20 years ago

    but the fact is it's crap, the wines are horrid, the reds are even somewhat palatable and only a few of those at best. The only one I've had that I'd even willingly drink again was some garnacha or something that cost $35 for a bottle and it wasn't any better than something I could get from europe for half that.

    Stereotypes exist for a raisin, aussie garbage juice apologists will say "oh but terroir isn't real it's actually a hoax it's the maker that counts not the country" and then they consistently prove that no one in their country wants to make good wine because they'd lose their strongest market (gutter palate plebs) and they'd gain nothing because their reputation is permanently associated with shit tier wines and no non-pleb would bother even if it was free.

    tl;dr frick austr*lia

          Always funny to see an aussie trying to be a snob about aussie garbage

          Not too familiar with Aussie wines but kiwis make some damn nice sauvignon blancs.
