（《葡萄酒新闻》）最近，由《葡萄酒新闻》今年首次组织的Saperavi World Prize受到澳大利亚媒体广泛追捧。澳大利亚酿酒商积极参与于格鲁吉亚举行的本届赛事，激发了澳洲媒体的热情关注。
In Drinks Bulletin's article "Aussie winemakers dominate 2017 SapPrize entries" the author Alana House writes:
在刊登于《Drinks Bulletin》的文章 "Aussie winemakers dominate 2017 SapPrize entries" 中，作者阿拉纳·豪斯写道：
Ever heard of a wine varietal called Saperavi?
听说过萨别拉维这个酿酒葡萄品种吗？
Neither had we until we'd read that Australia was dominating the entries for the 2017 Saperavi World Prize.
我们对这一品种也知之甚少，直到我们得知2017年大奖的有力角逐者大部分来自澳大利亚。 Saperavi World Prize.
Saperavi is the European nation of Georgia's signature grape. David Williams describes its grapes in The Guardian as producing "deeply colored wines with a kind of wild, almost untamed intensity of tannin, finger-staining fruit and acidity that has very few peers."
萨别拉维是欧洲国家格鲁吉亚最具代表性的葡萄品种。大卫·威廉姆斯在《卫报》上发表的文章中称这一品种酿造的葡萄酒“颜色较深，独具野性和桀骜不驯的强烈单宁，颜色醇厚的果实及酸度使与之媲美者寥寥无几”。
Saperavi vines are found in Australia, United States, New Zealand, Central Europe, and former Soviet republics.
萨别拉维葡萄在澳大利亚、美国、新西兰、中欧及前苏联加盟共和国均有种植。
However, it's a relative unknown in many countries outside Europe. It was only recognized by the US Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau as a variety in 2014.
然而，这一品种在欧洲以外的地区几乎名不见经传。直到2014年才得到美国酒类与烟草税及贸易局的品种认证。
"About 20 years ago there was an effort to clear up confusion and remove 'faux' grape names that were for marketing purposes only," Marti Macinski from Standing Stone, an entrant in the Saperavi World Prize, told the Star Gazette. "My guess is that no one was labeling a Saperavi in this country, so no one spoke up and said 'hey, let's include this grape' and it simply did not make the list."
“20年前，我们开始对葡萄品种进行梳理，删除仅仅为了市场营销造势的‘假’葡萄品种名称。”大 Saperavi World Prize的参赛者之一，来自Standing Stone公司的马蒂·马钦斯基告诉《明星报》：“据我猜测，这个国家里没有人采用萨别拉维这一标签，因此也没有人提出‘让我们把这个品种包括在内’。萨别拉维因此未被列入名单。”
Dan Traucki, director of Wine Assist consultancy (Australia) writes:
"Hvino News has become interested in what the rest of the world is doing with their variety... These wines will be judged in Georgia, against other non-Georgian Saperavi by a panel of five international wine judges. How clever is that!
They get to see what winemakers around the world are doing with their variety, whilst the winemakers get to benchmark themselves against all the other ‘newbies’ in Saperaviland"
“《葡萄酒新闻》对世界其他国家采用这一葡萄品种酿酒产生了兴趣……这些葡萄酒将与其他产自格鲁吉亚以外的萨别拉维葡萄酒一同在格鲁吉亚接受五名国际葡萄酒评委的品鉴。真是个充满智慧的做法！”“评委们将看到这一品种在世界各国如何加工酿造，而格鲁吉亚酿酒商也将有机会和‘萨别拉维王国’的新成员们一争高下。”
On August 8th the industry's leading Wine titles Media published an article "Australia dominates Saperavi awards" in its Daily Wine News newsletter, which reads:
8月8日，葡萄酒行业顶尖级媒体Wine titles Media在《每日葡萄酒新闻》简报中刊登一篇文章（"Australia dominates Saperavi awards"），其中提到：
Saperavi, the “signature” Georgian grape variety, is becoming increasingly popular around the world. Saperavi wines are produced in Australia, USA, New Zealand, Central Europe, and former Soviet republics.
格鲁吉亚最具代表性的葡萄品种之一——萨别拉维在全球的知名度蒸蒸日上。澳大利亚、美国、新西兰、中欧和前苏联加盟共和国均有萨别拉维葡萄酒的酿造。
13 of the 19 producers that have entered the competition have come from Australia, demonstrating the variety's success.
参与本届大赛角逐的19家酿酒商中，有13家来自澳大利亚，这充分证明了该品种的成功。
