Each term OWRI hosts a series of seminars detailing updates of current research or research outcomes from grape and wine research activities. Each seminar content is delivered by researchers from a range of organizations. Seminars are FREE and open to the public. If you can't attend in person, join us online. There is no software to download, and the presentation recordings are posted on this page for later viewing.
