Taxation Changes for the wine industry

In a bid that will most likely push up the prices of most Australian wines and put even further pressure on the beleagured wine industry, recent leaks from the much vaunted Henry report into taxation in Australia has led to speculation that Australia will move to a flat percentage tax on alcohol, abolishing much of the rather complex alcohol taxation system currently used.

Have a read of this article for more information (here).

What do you think? Do you support such a taxation system?

Happy New Year!

Firstly, happy new year from everyone at Winemakers Choice!

Now that the bedlam of Christmas time has passed, it's time to start thinking about the new year and with it, new beginnings.

After going missing in action over the second half of last year as we built our new website (hope you like it), we promise to get back into regular blogging in 2010.

So good tidings, and dont forget to check back regularly in 2010!
