Jane Faulkner has LIMESTONE COAST WINE SHOW JUDGING instituted some changes to the judging schedule and classes to simplify the judging and entry Monday 24th, Tuesday 25th & Wednesday 26th October, 2016 processes, with some new trophies this year including the Wine of Provenance Trophy and the Chief of Judges Wine to Watch. It’s good to see the wine show evolving and innovating. LIMESTONE COAST WINE SHOW TROPHY JUDGING Firstly, I would like to thank the Sponsors who support the show and make it possible and also I Thursday, 27th October, 2016 would like to thank all the committee members for another year of volunteer effort, to bring the LIMESTONE COAST WINE SHOW TROPHY PRESENTATION DINNER wine show to fruition and bring the Limestone Coast wine community together for a celebration Thursday, 27th October, 2016 of the wines from our regions. (Robe) Vintage 2016 saw a welcome upswing in the demand for fruit and the prices payed for high quality fruit, together with better yields this year. The exception is Chardonnay which remains EXHIBITORS TASTINGS & PUBLIC TASTINGS in serious oversupply. Demand for bulk wines into China and demand for higher quality wine Friday, 28th October 2016 from leading export companies has seen improvement in trading conditions. Notably the Exhibitor Tasting 9am - 1.30pm water security and relatively low cost of water in the Limestone Coast now appears a factor as Public Tasting 11.30am - 1.30pm ($15 admission including Results Book) companies from other areas look for reliable supplies of wine from cooler growing climates. Results Book - $10 Continuation of this improvement in demand is contingent on the dollar remaining at its (Coonawarra Hall) current level, but at least it is a positive trend. The Tech committee is now chaired by Kerry de Garis who, along with Cath Kidman, has 2016 COMMITTEE recently completed her PHD thesis. Congratulations to both of these local viticulturalists. We have secured regional funding for 2016-2017 projects along with extra funding from the NRM Gerard Coote Trent Nankivell Peta Baverstock board for our Limestone Coast Irrigators survey. We have also contributed to ongoing spore Greg Foster Sarah Pidgeon Ulrich Grey-Smith trap Eutypa research in our region with Mark Sosnowski from SARDI, given the significance of this issue.

Jane Faulkner Stuart Watson Patrick White The Parliamentary Inquiry into unconventional gas is still hearing submissions, with the AWRI, SAWIA and the WGCSA having made submissions in support of our position late last year.
