Hunter vigneron accuses wine industry body of failing to fairly promote Hunter wines

A Hunter vigneron has hit out at the country’s peak wine industry body, accusing it of failing to fairly promote and market Hunter wines. Ballabourneen Wine Company has lodged a submission with a senate inquiry into the Australian wine industry. It says the Australian Grape and Wine Authority is not providing value for money or due recognition to the Hunter Valley as one of the country’s prestige wine regions.
