Australia, just like other places in the world, makes fine wines and
they make cheap poor wines. And others in between.

To verify this, I would suggest that you get someone to arrange a
blind tasting for you of decent wines (don't choose cheap ones), in
pairs--one from Australia and the other from elsewhere, each of the
pair made from the same grape. See if you can pick out which of each
pair is from Australia. My guess is that you will not come close to
being able to do this consistently.
