In order to achieve this we follow certain procedures in an activity that is notoriously difficult! There are regular criticisms of wine shows and various scoring systems; here is how we approach our tastings. A WIDE SELECTION OF WINES: final ‘medals’ are then converted into featured regardless of advertising. The Wines are invited from any producer, a star rating system for publication in judges’ decisions are final and these provided that they meet the criteria of Winestate.

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.

PUBLISHED OCTOBER 2018 Orange – a unique cool climate wine region PagePage A 2 || Located in the Central Ranges of New South Wales, Orange is relatively young compared to other wine regions. Orange wines developed in the 1980s and today the region boasts over 1500 hectares of grapes and around 80 vineyards. The area is recognised both for the quality“ of wine as well its fine food, which await discovery in the picturesque pastoral setting. Set at over 600 metres above sea level, the inland cool climate has a long and slow growing period, dry autumns, and higher-than-average rainfall. This produces crisp, expressive white wines and savoury, light to medium bodied red wines, with the region planted to 60% red wine varieties and 40% white wine varieties. Shiraz is widely planted in the Orange region, showing red and blackberry fruit flavours, peppery spice and herbal notes, generally lighter in body and best drunk within the first five years. Chardonnay is another popular variety, with many examples enhanced by oak to enhance texture and richness. Orange has also seen an increase in newer-to-Australia varieties in recent years, including Sangiovese, Tempranillo, Zinfandel, Viognier“ and more. If you haven’t experienced Orange wines then this comprehensive wine lover’s guide that we’ve put together will help you plan all aspects of your visit. Enjoy!
