When I had my brief (and by brief, I'm talking two weeks, because I realized it was a massive undertaking on my part, and backed out kindly), time in the wine biz...

I was working for a distributor that dealt specifically in wines from the southern hemisphere. One partner was from Australia and the other was from South Africa. If I'm not mistaken, and I didn't look it up, I know that Australia pretty much pioneered the caps on nice wines, as well as other south of the equator wineries.

Good stuff, too.
