摘要

THERE are 250 grapegrowers with 15,800ha of vineyards spread throughout the Limestone Coast covering Coonawarra, Padthaway, Wrattonbully, Mount Benson, Robe and Mount Gambier.And each area is faced with different environmental resources and challenges with the Limestone Coast Grape and Wine Council (LCGWC) determined to tackle each and every one of them.Including soil-related issues.Cape Jaffa Wines winemaker Anna Hooper, Patrick Wines owner and winemaker Luke Tocacui, Henry's Drive Vignerons proprietor Kim Longbottom and Penfolds Robe Vineyards vineyard manager Nick Baverstock were selected as the four participants to learn about regions across Australia and to find techniques to benefit their own soil environment.
