近日，美国政府决定加大对澳大利亚的葡萄酒出口量，他们坚信澳大利亚的市场潜力巨大。美国驻澳大利亚总领事Niels Marquardt本周在家中举办了一次美国葡萄酒品酒会，酒样由澳大利亚进口商Vinsense、Negociants Australia以及Pinot Now提供。

recently,The United States government decided to intensify the Australian wine exports,They believe that Australia has enormous market potential.U.S. ambassador to Australia Niels consul general Marquardt this week in the home held a American wine wine tasting,Wine sample by Australian importers Vinsense/Negociants Australia and Pinot Now provide.

　　他说，现在仅有0.2%的美国葡萄酒出口到澳大利亚。“在澳大利亚可以买到来自法国、德国、西班牙、阿根廷智利和新西兰等国家的葡萄酒，所以澳大利亚消费者并不排斥进口酒。但是由于一些历史原因，进入澳大利亚的美国酒始终没有增加。再加上汇率因素，如果不考虑价格问题，情况会得到改善。不论是哪个档次的葡萄酒，我们都是很有竞争力的。”

He said,Now there are only 0.2% of American wine export to Australia."In Australia can buy from France/Germany/Spain/Argentina and Chile, New Zealand and other countries of wine,So Australian consumers are not exclusive imported wine.But due to some historical reasons,Entry to the country the United States wine always did not increase.Plus exchange rate factor,If you don't consider the question of price,Things will improve.No matter which level of wine,We are very competitive."

　　品鉴会以加州葡萄酒为主，还有一些来自俄勒冈产区。Marquardt说，每年出口到澳大利亚的加州葡萄酒只有40000箱左右。“我们预计出口量能达到100万箱，而且要达到这个目标也不需要这么长时间。”他本人最喜欢增芳德葡萄酒，但是这种酒在澳大利亚并不多见。“希望以后能像喝西拉一样随处都可以喝到增芳德葡萄酒，所以现在来看这是市场的一个空白点，但是加州的增芳德应该在这占有一席之地。”

Tasting to California wine is given priority to,There are some from Oregon region.Marquardt said,Every year export to Australia's California wine only about 40000 cases."We expect the export volume can reach 1 million box,And to achieve this goal also do not need such a long time."He himself the most like to increase aromatic DE wine,But the wine in Australia does not see more."Hope I can like drink Silas are can drink to increase aromatic DE wine,So now to see this is a blank piece of the market,But California's increasing aromatic DE should be in this place."

　　美国驻澳大利亚大使Jeffrey Bleich说，美国只是澳大利亚的第九大葡萄酒供应国。“美国葡萄酒品种丰富、品质优良，是时候与澳大利亚葡萄酒爱好者一起分享美国葡萄酒了。”

America's ambassador to Australia Jeffrey Bleich said,The United States was Australia's ninth largest wine suppliers."The United States wine variety/Excellent quality,It is time and Australian wine lovers to share the American wine."
