Consilium Technology Pty Ltd ABN 44 143 250 882 1102/147 Pirie St, Adelaide SA 5000 [email protected] National Scan 2018 Foundation Data ​relating to wine production capability is of strategic importance to the Australian wine sector. Vineyard planting data was last made available by the Australia Bureau of Statistics (ABS) in 2015. Consilium Technology was engaged by Wine Australia in August 2018 to deliver a technical capability to resume the measurement of the production capacity of the Australian wine industry. The capability Consilium Technology developed1 is offered as a product known as GAIA (​http://projectgaia.ai​). This document outlines the methodology of how GAIA was used to deliver the National Scan 2018 and summarises the per-state, per-GI values for vineyard area and vine row length reported for the National Scan 2018. GAIA allows Wine Australia to obtain Foundation Data about the Australian wine industry on an ongoing basis by virtue of the radically different approach used, compared to previous methods. Previously, the ABS was tasked with producing a ​Vineyards Census​. The ABS surveyed industry participants by sending the census to establishments identified as undertaking viticulture activity, with involvement in the survey being voluntary (there was an 87% response rate in 2015).

  • Disorder with Law: Determining the Geographical Indication for the Coonawarra Wine Region

Surveying the introduction of a regulatory scheme in a small rural community it demonstrates the potentially disruptive impact of law and explores some of the limitations of legal and Tregulatory processes.1 In this instance, the domestic ramifications of an international trade agreement between Australia and Europe generated frustration, animosity and eventually litigation.

  • 2018 D'arenberg
    2018 d’ARENBERG THE HERMIT CRAB VIOGNIER MARSANNE WINEMAKER: Chester Osborn REGION: McLaren Vale, South Australia VARIETALS: Viognier (62%), Marsanne (38%) MATURATION: 10% in seasoned French oak for 8 months ANALYSIS: 13.5% alc/vol | TA: 6.8 g/L | pH: 3.20 BACKGROUND: Many of McLaren Vale’s vineyards are on free-draining soils underlain with limestone, formed by the calcareous remains of the local marine fauna including the Hermit Crab, a reclusive little creature that inhabits the cast-off shells of others. Thus the Osborn family thought the name appropriate for this blend, as it is best enjoyed with shellfish and seafood dishes. WINEMAKING NOTES: Small batches of grapes were crushed and transferred to stainless steel basket presses. Fermentation was long and moderately cool to retain fresh fruit characters. 4% underwent wild fermentation for extra complexity. 14% of the Viognier was fermented in seasoned French oak to add mouth feel and support the subtle Viognier tannins. Both components received similar treatment, but were not blended until the final stages of the winemaking process. TASTING NOTES: An incredibly fragrant nose full of sweet apricot and gingery spice. The palate is luscious and generous, but has great acid which tightens the wine, adding freshness and a clean crisp finish. Slight pithy feel which builds on the spice notes. CRITICAL ACCLAIM: 93 pts JamesSucking.com, 91 pts/Best Buy Wine & Spirits, 90 pts Wine Spectator ABOUT d’ARENBERG: One of the undisputed kings of Australian Shiraz and Rhone varietals, d’Arenberg has managed to turn individuality into an art form by doing a whole lot of little things differently.
