Smoke taint

When vineyards and grapes are exposed to smoke it can result in wines that are smoky, burnt, ashy or medicinal, which provoke a negative response in consumers. The main goal of this project is to determine the link between grape compositional and wine sensory data and prepare a stock of experimental wines for future work, from grapes exposed to smoke during the 2019-20 bushfires in south-eastern Australia.

New digital technologies for managing winegrape production and quality

This project will develop and field test a shortlist of digital technologies for grapegrowers that provide more accurate and faster measurements of yield, canopy structure, early detection of disease, and crop condition and composition. A recent study estimated that these benefits could potentially deliver a 25% improvement in the gross value of Australian agriculture.
