National Vintage Report 2019 Wine Australia for National Vintage Report 2019 Australian New South Wales, Murray Darling – Swan Hill and Queensland Wine National Vintage Report 2019: New South Wales, Murray Darling – Swan Hill and Queensland This appendix contains price dispersion tables by region and variety. The information includes tonnes purchased and the breakdown of pricing by grade, tonnes of own grown fruit and an estimated total value of all grapes. It is important to note that these tables utilise raw collected data and therefore tonnes and total value will differ from figures quoted in the National Vintage Report 2019. 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. Only defined GI regions where the total collected tonnage exceeds 1000 tonnes have been included in this report. Information for smaller regions and ‘zones – other’ can be obtained on request.

  • Provisioner Bona Fide Pure Arizona, Arizona White Table Wine 2014, 57
    Provisioner Bona Fide Pure Arizona, Arizona White Table Wine 2014, 57% Colombard, 30% Chenin Blanc, 13% Malvasia 13.3% Alc • The Provisioner White is fresh, crisp and fruity with perfect amount of body. It’s wonderful as an accompaniment to a light lunch, with serious dinner foods and, of course, all by itself. • In early frontier days the small-town general store was the social hub and lifeline for the hardy pioneers that settled the American Southwest. These stores, or provisioners, sold everything from nails to flour, blankets to whiskey. Arizona, despite efforts to tame her, is still a wild place with many secrets lying just below the surface. The most recent discovery is the propensity for the vine to thrive here and to yield a fine nectar that is indisputably Southwestern. Provisioner wines capture and share the soul of this place, and they do so in the spirit of the old-time general store: they support new exploration, they push us into new territory and make this quest we are on a little more honest and enjoyable. And all of this without breaking the bank. Drink well. These are wines for the people! • Fort Bowie Vineyard, Cochise County, Arizona • Fort Bowie Vineyards is the second oldest vineyard in the state. Planted in 1984, the massive French Colombard vines on the site are a big as a foot in trunk diameter. Additionally, the deep, loamy soils and warm summers (the warmest of our vineyards) lend to fruit driven wines that are approachable and young. • At an elevation of 3750 feet, Fort Bowie has two distinct vineyards, the Shop block and Lacey’s block.

  • NSW Food & Wine Tourism Strategy & Action Plan 2018
    New South Wales Food & Wine Tourism Strategy & Action Plan 2018 - 2022 FOREWORD The NSW Food & Wine Tourism Strategy & Action Plan 2018 - 2022 is designed to provide the food and wine sector and the tourism industry with an overview of Destination NSW’s plans to further support the development of food and wine tourism to the State. NSW attracts more domestic and international visitors than any Australian State, giving us a position of strength to leverage in growing consumer interest and participation in food and wine tourism experiences. The lifeblood of this vibrant industry sector is the passion and innovation of our producers, vignerons, chefs and restaurateurs and the influence of our multicultural population on ingredients, cooking styles and cuisine and beverage purveyors. NSW is also home to the oldest and newest wine regions in Australia, world renowned for vintages of exceptional quality. From fifth-generation, family-owned wineries to a new generation of winemakers experimenting with alternative techniques and varietals, the State’s wine industry is a key player in the tourism industry. Alongside our winemakers, a new breed of beverage makers – the brewers of craft beer and ciders and distillers of gin and other spirits – is enriching the visitor experience. The aim of this Strategy & Action Plan is to ensure NSW’s exceptional food and wine experiences become a highlight for visitors to the State. Destination NSW is grateful to the many industry stakeholders who have contributed to the development of this Strategy and Action Plan, and we look forward to working together to deliver outstanding food and wine experiences to every visitor.

The Australian winegrape crush for 2019 is estimated to be Add to that a yearning to innovate, a fearless attitude and a 1.73 million tonnes, just 1% below the 10-year average, diverse patchwork of 65 wine regions and more than 100 grape according to the National Vintage Report 2019.

  • Carbon Footprint and Sulphur Emissions for International Wine Distribution Using Alternative Routeing and Packaging Scenarios
    Carbon Footprint and Sulphur Emissions for International Wine Distribution using Alternative Routeing and Packaging Scenarios Irina Harris1a, Vasco Sanchez Rodriguesa, Stephen Pettita, Anthony Beresforda, Rodion Liashkob aLogistics and Operations Management Section, Cardiff Business School, Cardiff University b Yusen Logistics Abstract There is a large body of research related to carbon footprint reduction in supply chains and logistics from a wide range of sectors where the decarbonisation of freight transport is frequently explored from a single mode perspective and at domestic/regional level (Jardine, 2009; Maersk, 2013; Wiesmann, 2010). The decarbonisation of global freight transport chains needs to take into account a range of alternative transport modes and routes in addition to the decisions related to the alternative product packaging at source or closer to the demand points. This paper intends to address these shortcomings and the research presents a “gate to gate” carbon footprint and sulphur calculations methodology related to the distribution of wine from Australia and Italy to the UK. The methodology adopted in this paper uses secondary data gathered from academic and industrial sources on the distribution of wine from source to market. These were used to evaluate the environmental impact of international wine transport to the UK from two sourcing areas: Italy and Australia. A number of options were evaluated to calculate the carbon footprint and sulphur emissions of alternative route, mode and packaging combinations. The estimation of CO2e emissions incorporates three main elements - cargo mass, distance and transport mode whereas sulphur emissions are derived from actual ship routing, engine power and travel times. The decision made related to the bottling of wine either at source or destination is also integrated into the model.
