South Africa Wine
Climate information is an important part of decision-making across the wine industry. How do we turn that information into practical action? Join us for a Fireside Chat on how climate data can support vineyard management, water planning, operational decisions, and understanding a vintage.

Together they'll discuss how climate data can inform decisions across the wine value chain, drawing on both research and practical experience.
