The Australian ‘Black Summer’ of 2019/20, which saw bushfires destroy swathes of vineyard land across the country was a dramatic reminder of the growing challenges facing winemakers around the world. We spoke to leading Australian winemakers and lab technicians to find out how agile decision-making is helping to deal with the consequences of global warming. Offering alarming proof of the escalating effects of climate change, in November 2019 bushfires blazed through New South Wales, scorching more than five million hectares of land following Australia’s hottest and driest year on record. In December 2019, the fires swept through the Adelaide Hills, destroying 650 ha of vines in the region, and wiping out entire vineyards. Making matters worse, the smoke from the fires was far-reaching, rendering vineyard plots from Canberra to the Hunter Valley useless.

Inspiration from one of the World’s Top Restaurants – Don Julio One of our WISE employees, Tristyne, was traveling last month and filling up her ‘hospitality well’. She just returned from an amazing trip to Argentina and came back with some great insights. This trip was full of amazing wines and steak from Mendoza, but one of her favorite experiences was the opportunity to dine at Don Julio, 2020’s “Best Restaurant in Latin America”. This restaurant is currently rated the 2nd best in Latin America and #14 in the world, but these accolades weren’t just given to this restaurant. They were earned through hard work. But what is it about this restaurant that sets them apart and how does this relate to the wine industry? “The new luxury has nothing to do with whether [a restaurant] is expensive or not.
