Technical Research Group Workshops and Seminars
With Covid Restrictions rolling on, we have not been able to bring you as many events as planned.
With new online platforms we are now holding Hybrid-Seminars where many (if not all) presenters zoom-in to the Seminar. We can offer online registrations as well as ‘in-person’ – this gives us the capability to go to the webinar format if that is required.
The last Hybrid-Seminar was in May on GrapeVine Virus and in September Managing Extreme Weather Events
Climate, Soils & Geology
The Limestone Coast is unique in it’s geology and geography due to the variety of natural features that exist within the area known as the Otway basin.

Unearthing Culture & Practices
More than just Terrior. We speak to the pioneers and see and hear how they went about planting their patch and their winemaking. Good learnings here, the ideas and techniques that worked have lead us to decisions we make today.
