For purchased grapes, if a regional/varietal combination did not have three or more purchasers, it was excluded for the sake of privacy of those respondents.

JONES3 1 National Wine and Grape Industry Centre, Charles Sturt University,Wagga Wagga, NSW 2678, Australia 2 School of Environmental Sciences, Charles Sturt University, PO Box 789, Albury, NSW 2640, Australia 3 Department of Environmental Studies, Southern Oregon University,Ashland, OR 97520, USA Corresponding author: Dr Andrew Hall, fax +61 2 6051 9897, email [email protected] Abstract Background and Aims: Temperature-based indices are commonly used to indicate long-term suitabil- ity of climate for commercially viable winegrape production of different grapevine cultivars, but their calculation has been inconsistent and often inconsiderate of within-region spatial variability. This paper (i) investigates and quantifies differences between four such indices; and (ii) quantifies the within-region spatial variability for each Australian wine region. Methods and Results: Four commonly used indices describing winegrape growing suitability were calculated for each Australian geographic indication (GI) using temperature data from 1971 to 2000. Within-region spatial variability was determined for each index using a geographic information system. The sets of indices were compared with each other using first- and second-order polynomial regression. Heat-sum temperature indices were strongly related to the simple measure of mean growing season temperature, but variation resulted in some differences between indices. Conclusion: Temperature regime differences between the same region pairs varied depending upon which index was employed. Spatial variability of the climate indices within some regions led to significant overlap with other regions; knowledge of the climate distribution provides a better understanding of the range of cultivar suitability within each region.

    MasterClass MasterClass wine scenario. He laid emphasis on the fact that Australia with its sheer land size is equivalent to a continent, especially when compared to other wine countries of Europe. Such a vastness of terrain offers great diversity of micro climates and soil types. As regards Victoria, the region has a largely Mediterranean climate and its viticultural roots can be traced to the mid nineteenth century. Victoria produces varietal wines largely from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Shiraz apart from several other grapes like Muscat, Riesling, Pinot Gris, Marsanne, Roussanne to name a few. Victoria is broadly demarcated into three regions viz. Central Victoria (Heathcote, Goulburn Valley, Strathbogie Ranges ,Upper Goulburn) North Eastern Victoria (Rutherglen, Glenrowan, King Valley, Alpine Valleys, Beechworth) and Port Philip (Yarra Valley, Mornington Peninsula, Geelong, Sunbury, Macedon Ranges).

Tonnes purchased may be slightly higher than the sum of tonnes in all price ranges as some fruit does not have a price specified. 2. Where there are fewer than three purchasers of a variety, the average price and total value are not reported. 3. The estimated non-response rate nationally is 9.5%; however, the non-response rate varies for each region. Generally, regions with more small wineries and less purchased fruit will have higher non-response rates. As the number and identity of respondents can change from year to year, changes in the size of the crush can be partly attributable to changes in the non-response rate.
