Industry agrees on tackling wine sector downturn

The wine industry came together in Adelaide on Friday, August 28, to discuss the urgency for industry reform and agreed on next steps for how representative organisations can contribute to a return to profitability. More than 40 wine industry leaders from across Australia met at Grape & Wine 2015, an initiative that was established after a meeting of state and national chairs of various wine organisations held in November 2014. Grape and Wine 15 included representatives from all states and many regional associations, growers, winemakers and service providers.
