This article provides a historical overview of wine production in Australia, with a specific focus on the Riverina region in New South Wales. It explains how Australian wine production differs from traditional French methods due to the arid climate and limited rainfall, leading to the use of engineered irrigation. The article explores the cultural and historical factors that have influenced Australia's wine industry, including colonization and government policies. It also discusses the challenges faced by the industry, such as temperance movements and economic crises. The article concludes by examining the efforts of McWilliam Wines in adapting to the climate and market demands, as well as the environmental and economic concerns associated with irrigation. It also compares the Australian and French approaches to irrigation in wine production. [Extracted from the article] |
