The boundary
Wine Australia’s spatial interpretation of the GI’s legal description. Producer pins are placed by their own coordinates — this map is how each one was assigned.
Crush by vintage
Tonnes crushed, as reported to Wine Australia. A short bar is a small vintage — frost, drought or fire — not a small region.
