Experiences with Eutypa Dieback

Discover how vineyard owners across several South Australian grapegrowing regions are dealing with Eutypa dieback. This video explains how to identify the symptoms of the wood invading fungus, the most efficient ways to remove diseased wood and get a replacement vine back into production. Featuring interviews with a scientist, winemaker and viticulturists, this video discusses how vineyards can be relieved of Eutypa dieback through appropriate management. This video is produced with funding support from Wine Australia.
