Australia has some of the oldest grape vines on the planet, dating back to the 1840s, and grown in some of the oldest geology and most complex soils in the world. Grapevine cuttings from Europe arrived in Australia before phylloxera struck and destroyed many European vineyards. Some of those original vines are still producing grapes today and as a result, Australia is home to some of the world's oldest Shiraz, Grenache, Mourvedre (Mataro) and other varieties.
In this live, virtual seminar, you'll get to hear from today's Australian Old Vine experts and taste a broad selection of their old vine treasures. You can decide for yourself: Do old vines matter? Do they make better wines? We'll discuss these questions and more!

Mark Davidson, Head of Education, Wine Australia
