In This Issue
As the wine industry reflects on another year of challenges, amidst sparks of resilience and optimism, the April issue of Grapegrower & Winemaker includes our annual Top 20 special feature that looks back on the past fiscal year for the largest wine companies in Australia and New Zealand. As part of this we also review the year that was for the overall grape and wine sector on both sides of the Tasman. This month we also look into a possible solution for vineyard post disposal, and outline a boost for efforts to battle Botrytis in Tasmania. We find out how vineyard operators stand to benefit from new technology with the move of Yamaha Motor into the production of precision AgTech. Menatime, HR specialists Ilga Horvat and Linda Blackett examine a proactive approach to risk management in what’s always a busy vintage. Ian Jeffery turns his attention to the latest technology for refrigeration systems. We discover more about a breakthrough from Spain on the capture and reuse of CO₂, while we share research on the application of inerting gases to prevent incorporation of oxygen into wine. We meet this month’s Young Gun, senior winemaker Mercedes Paynter from Kilikanoon in the Clare Valley, and we learn about the concerted regional effort to embrace lightweight bottles in Margaret River.
