Everything about The National Wine Centre Of Australia totally explained

The National Wine Centre of Australia (commonly the "Wine Centre") is a public exhibition about winemaking and its industry in South Australia. It contains an interactive permanent exhibition of winemaking, introducing visitors to the technology, varieties and styles of wine. It also has a wine tasting area, giving visitors the opportunity to taste and compare wines from different areas of Australia. The Wine Centre is situated at the eastern end of North Terrace, Adelaide's in the East Adelaide Parklands and adjacent to the Adelaide Botanic Gardens.
   The building is designed and uses building materials to reflect items used in making wine. The external of the building looks like a section of a wine barrel. Outside the building are rows of grapevines, showing seven different varieties of grapes to curious visitors who normally wouldn't have access to a vineyard to see the differences for themselves.
   Its development by the Olsen Liberal State Government was shrouded in controversy and it was labelled as a white elephant by the Opposition. It eventually opened on 7 October 2001 after enabling legislation created the concept in the National Wine Centre Act (1997).
   After a number of problems with funding, management and profitability, the Wine Centre operation was taken over by the University of Adelaide on July 1 2003. It now offers some of the university's oenology courses, as well as the public face of the wine industry in Australia.
