Much of the information in the diary was taken from the booklet, Agrochemicals registered for use in Australian viticulture 16/17: a must for grape growers and winemakers exporting wine, published by The Australian Wine Research Institute and compiled by Marcel Essling and Anne Lord.

3 1 August, 2016 Dear valued Grower, Last season marked the end of the use of paper-based spray diaries for growers supplying Accolade Wines. From this season, spray diaries will need to be completed online, via the VitiCentral website ( Increasingly, Accolade s customers are demanding detailed information regarding the chemicals used in the production of our wines, and the best way to collate that data is via the VitiCentral website. I realise that some growers may not have access to the internet, or have trouble with computers. If you are one of these growers, don t be concerned just call your local Viticulturist (listed on page 2 of this booklet) and they will work out a solution for you. We had an amazing response to the introduction of VitiCentral last season, with more than 20% of our growers adopting it without hesitation. As the season progresses, you will see several new features introduced into VitiCentral the majority of which were suggested by growers. Please keep sending in suggestions for improvement! Also, watch out for your invitation through VitiCentral to join CellarOne Accolade s online wine shop, where you will receive personal access to our entire portfolio of wines at discounted prices. Each new season brings with it a change to the restrictions placed on the use of chemicals, and the maximum residue limits that Accolade Wines will permit in grapes. It is therefore essential that you read this 2016/2017 Season Spray Policy & Spray Diary, and if you have any questions, call your local Viticulturist. It is also worth noting that at least one sample of grapes from each grower will be tested for residues this vintage. Finally, if you have any issue that you feel cannot be addressed by your Regional Viticulture Manager, I invite you to contact me on or via alex.sas@accolade-wines.com. All the best for a rewarding season. Regards, Alex Sas Chief Viticulturist 3

4 Chemical restrictions this year Accolade Wines exports wine to more than 60 countries. In order to meet the maximum residue limits (MRLs) set by these markets it is necessary to restrict the application of certain chemicals or to avoid their use altogether. These restrictions are listed on pages and must be observed. Please check the winery restrictions on use as these will override the label restrictions. In addition, please note that chemicals must not be applied within 30 days of harvest without first obtaining the approval of your Accolade Wines winery contact. If you wish to use a product registered for use on grapevines but it is not listed in this booklet, you must contact your Accolade Wines winery contact and obtain their approval prior to spraying. Fungicide resistance management strategies are included on pages 20 to 22. Similar resistance management strategies for insecticides and herbicides can be found at the CropLife website. Using the diary Please record all sprays used in the vineyard throughout the year. This includes herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, dyes, nematicides, nutrient sprays, setting sprays, wetting agents and baits. The completed diary must be signed and returned to your winery contact by the dates mentioned below. There are three spray diary forms, Form A (yellow), Form B (blue) and Form C (gold). Form A should be used to record sprays applied from the end of last harvest until mid-december. Form B is for sprays applied between mid-december and Form C is for sprays applied after harvest 2017 and prior to August These forms are no longer carbonless pages. A supplied page of carbon paper will need to be inserted between each folded page set and write firmly onto the winery copy and it will transfer onto your grower copy. Make sure you do not place additional pages or carbon pages underneath before you begin writing. To help you fill in your yellow, blue and gold coloured spray application forms there are two example pages. The first one, on page 30, gives examples and explanations of sprays applied by a canopy sprayer. The second, on page 31, is an example for herbicide spray applications. What growth stage The various stages of grapevine growth are illustrated on page 7. These have been included so that you can record the growth stage at which the vineyard was sprayed. Select the number that best describes the maximum stage of growth (equals the most advanced stage of growth) in the vineyard and write this on the spray application record. Return the forms by due dates The winery copies of the pink calibration record, the yellow (Form A) together with gold (Form C) from your 2015/16 diary, must be returned to your winery representative by 15 December, 201 The contact details for this person are on the inside front cover. The blue form (Form B) should be returned by 10 January The gold form (Form C) must be removed from this diary and returned with your yellow and pink forms for the 2018 vintage diary. There is no requirement to transcribe this information into next seasons diary. Please return a signed and dated copy of the blue form even if you do not apply any sprays after sending in the yellow forms. Simply write no sprays applied across the page. The winery will only accept delivery of fruit if completed and signed copies of all forms have been returned. 4

5 Calibration Records As part of Accolade Wines food safety (HACCP) requirements, you must show that you have calibrated each sprayer at least once a year. The calibration should be done prior to the start of the season, and the sprayer settings and calculations should be recorded on the appropriate pink form (6a, 6b or 6c). A pink form must be returned signed and dated for each spray unit. If you have not used one or more of the spray units, mark the relevant form(s) DID NOT USE, signed and dated. If your spray unit has a flow controller you will be required to follow Operating Procedure 3: Calibration of Computer Canopy Sprayers that can be obtained from your winery contact. Sprayed after sending in forms? In some cases it may be necessary to apply sprays after you have returned your blue Form B. In these cases you will need to: -discuss with the winery the need to spray, and obtain its approval -record the additional sprays applied on the spare blue forms in the diary -give the winery a copy of the spray record (blue Form B), signed and dated, prior to the delivery of the grapes. Sprays applied after harvest and up until budburst the following season must also be recorded. This can be done on the gold forms in the back of this diary and returned with your yellow and pink pages from next seasons diary. Insecticide policy Indiscriminate insecticide use will upset the ecology of the vineyard, often necessitating additional spraying for other pests previously controlled by predators. Insecticides should never be used as regular preventative sprays, but only to solve a significant problem. If you believe that an insecticide is essential to control an outbreak of pests, please contact your winery contact to discuss the best course of action. Made a mistake? Your spray diary must be an accurate record of all the sprays you have applied to your vineyard during the season. It is important that you record the actual product you used and the actual chosen rate of the product you have applied. If you later discover that you have applied the wrong chemical, or the wrong rate, you must still record this spray in the diary. If you discover you have made a mistake by using an unregistered product or by applying an incorrect rate of product, please contact your winery contact immediately. You will be asked to complete a Corrective Action Request (CAR) form that will be supplied by Accolade Wines. Your grapes may need to be tested for residues. Acknowledging any mistakes that have been made, contacting your winery representative and completing a CAR form will ensure you fulfil your food safety obligations. 5

6 Off-target spray drift Whenever using chemicals especially herbicides on other crops ensure that there is no drift onto grapevines. If you have a potential off-target drift problem, please contact your winery contact to determine if alternative chemicals may be used. New South Wales The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) is responsible for regulating the use of pesticides in NSW, including investigating any allegations relating to the misuse of pesticides such as spray drift. The EPA operates a 24-hr toll-free number for reporting all incidents: tel If the matter requires follow up, then it will be referred to the appropriate local EPA office for follow up.

Western Australia Richard Fennessy (will receive and direct based on type of agrochemical drift) Grape & Wine Research Officer, Irrigated Agriculture Innovation, Department of Agriculture and Food, Western Australia Tel: (08) richard.fennessy@agric.wa.gov.au Residue testing program Accolade Wines will test your grapes for agrochemical residues so that you can comply with Accolade Wines food safety obligations. You will be notified of the results if your grapes, or wine made from them, are tested. The residue testing grower selection process has been included as page 25. All growers will be tested in the 2017 vintage. SAFEGRAPES The SAFEGRAPES Property Inspection Checklist has been included as page 2 Please use this Checklist prior to any Property Inspection to ensure compliance and reduce the potential for residue testing. No diary, no delivery To ensure the safety of our wine, grapes will not be booked or accepted for delivery unless all sections of the diary (yellow, blue and pink forms) have been returned by the due dates. Spray diary records can be acceptably submitted via VitiCentral. Combination returns of both VitiCentral records and paper records are not preferred. All growers will be expected to use VitiCentral for the 2017/18 season as no paper diary will be printed by Accolade Wines. 6

8 Maximum Residue Limit Standard for Vintage 2017 This Standard lists the maximum amount of an agrochemical which Accolade Wines will permit in grapes. Accolade Wines may take samples at or near harvest to determine compliance with this Standard. This amount is called the Maximum Residue Limit (MRL), and these limits are listed in the table below. In addition, the following specifications also apply: residues of herbicides must not be detected in grapes sampled near harvest, or in wine made from these grapes. residues of any agrochemical that is not registered for use in viticulture or is not listed below, must not be detected in grapes, or in wine made from these grapes. any residue of copper in grapes arising from the use of copper-based fungicide, must not be greater than 0.5 mg/kg. In the table, the abbreviation ND means that no detectable amount of that chemical is permitted in the sample. It should be pointed out that in practical terms, a MRL of 0.05 mg/kg means that essentially no residue should be found in the grapes.

10 Re-entry period The AWRI are gratefully acknowledged for this re-entry period reference. The re-entry period is the minimum amount of time that must pass between when a pesticide is applied to an area and when that area can be entered without protective clothing and equipment. The re-entry period must not be confused with the label and winery restrictions on use, as these later terms will impact the earliest harvest date, which is when the withholding period has expired and the date at which grapes can be tasted or harvested with low to no risk of chemical residues in the grapes or wine. Re-entry is usually permitted prior to the earliest harvest date. Re-entry periods are set to protect people from exposure to agrochemicals that can occur by inhalation or skin contact if they enter an area without proper protective equipment. The agrochemical label provides information on the re-entry period and any protective clothing or equipment that must be used if the re-entry period is not met. Different products from the same activity group may have different re-entry requirements. The advice provided in these tables is the most stringent re-entry period for the active constituent. Where the re-entry period specifies a range of days, the shorter period relates to low exposure activities and the longer period to higher exposure activities. Check the label for details. This advice is intended as a guide. Consult each product label for re-entry period directions. Use Active Constituent(s) Re-entry period Different products from the same activity group may have different re-entry requirements. Check the label for details.

20 Fungicide Resistance Management Strategies What is fungicide resistance? Fungicide resistance is the inherited ability of an organism to survive doses of a fungicide that would normally control it. Resistance may develop after frequent use of one fungicide, or fungicides from the same activity group. Resistance status Resistance to fungicides is a serious problem worldwide and resistance to many of the commonly used fungicides now exists. What produces fungicide resistant diseases? Any population contains a very small number of individuals which are naturally able to survive the application of a particular fungicide. If the same fungicide, or fungicides, from the same activity group are used repeatedly, and exclusively, the susceptible individuals continue to be removed, and those with natural resistance survive and multiply. In time, the resistant individuals dominate the population and the fungicide fails in the field. Resistance countering measures With any resistance management program it is important to: prevent the build-up of resistant individuals in the population; and minimise fungicide selection pressure by not over using fungicides to obtain best results, while at the same time delaying or minimising the potential development of resistance. The CropLife Australia Fungicide Resistance Management Review Group has taken two initiatives in fungicide resistance management: 1. All fungicides have been classified by activity group, which appears as a number or letter/number combinations code on the fungicide product label; and 2. Resistance Management Strategies have been developed for the use of fungicides in crops where resistance by a particular organism is already evident or considered a risk. The Fungicide Resistance Management Strategies provide recommendations for a fungicide program which ensures best control with least risk of developing resistance. Resistance Management Strategies are regularly updated and can be accessed via CropLife Australia s Website at: The strategy should be read in conjunction with the following disclaimer: This document is a guide only and does not endorse particular products, groups of products or cultural methods in terms of their performance.

Apply all these fungicides preventatively. 2. Consecutive applications include from the end of one season to the start of the next. 3. Mixtures - co-formulations or tank mixes with label rate of alternative mode of action Group (3) 13 U6 U8 Maximum number of consecutive sprays 2 2 none see below Maximum number of sprays per season Group 11 where these fungicides have been routinely used for many seasons, field research indicates there is an increased risk of powdery mildew resistance. To ensure effective powdery mildew control in these circumstances, either use alternative modes of action or apply in mixtures. Group 11 If applied alone, do not make consecutive applications. Group 11 apply a maximum of 2 sprays per season, including mixtures. Downy mildew Resistance Management Strategy for: Group 4 Group 11 Group 40 Group 45 Phenylamide; Quinone outside inhibitor; Carboxylic acid amide; and Quinone outside inhibitor, stigmatellin binding type fungicides. 1. Apply all these fungicides preventatively, Group 4 fungicides should be applied before the first sign of oilspots or as soon as possible after an infection period. 2. Mixtures - co-formulations or tank mixes with label rate of alternative mode of action. 3. Apply a maximum of two consecutive applications of any one group. 4. Start preventative disease control sprays using non-group 4 protectant fungicides, typically when shoots are 10-20cm long. Continue spraying at intervals of 7-21 days depending on disease pressure, label directions and rate of vine growth. 5. Limit the use of Group 4 fungicides to periods when conditions favour disease development. Always apply Group 4 fungicides in mixtures.

If three or fewer bunch rot sprays are applied in a season, use no more than one spray from the same fungicide group during the season, for any Group 2, 9 (including combinations with Group 12), 11 (including combinations with Group 3), 17 or 7 fungicides. 2. If four or more bunch rot sprays are applied in a season, use no more than two sprays from the same fungicide group during the season, for any Group 2, 9 (including combinations with Group 12), 11 (including combinations with Group 3), 17 or 7 fungicides. 3. DO NOT apply more than two consecutive sprays from the same fungicide group, for any Group 2, 9 (including combinations with Group 12) or 17 fungicide, including from the end of one season to the start of the following season. 4. DO NOT apply consecutive sprays of Group 7 fungicides, including from the end of one season to the start of the following season. 5. DO NOT apply more than two sprays per season of Group 11 (including combinations with Group 3) fungicides. If two consecutive applications of Group 11 (including combinations with Group 3) fungicides are used, then they must be followed by at least the same number of applications of fungicide(s) from a different group(s) before a Group 11 (including combinations with Group 3) fungicide is used again, either in the current or following season. If a Group 11 fungicide is used solo, it should only be used in strict alternation with fungicides from a different crossresistance group. 7. If resistance to a fungicide group has been detected, only use that fungicide group in mixtures or in strict alternation with fungicides from a different cross resistance group. A fungicide group that has been applied as the final application of the season should not be the first fungicide in the following season. 8. DO NOT apply fungicides curatively. 9. Late season fungicide treatments should be applied before Botrytis infection reaches unacceptably high levels in the vineyard. 22

23 23 Good Agricultural Practice Guide The following requirements should also be observed in line with good agricultural practice: 1. The vineyard owner/manager must ensure all label and winery restrictions on use have been followed BEFORE harvest commences. Failure to comply with these restrictions can result in unacceptable chemical residues remaining in the grapes and in the wine. 2. Application of raw animal manures must not occur within 120 days before Manure dust may contaminate the fruit. 3. Biosolids (treated sewage sludge) must not be used. Heavy metals within the biosolid could contaminate the grapes. 4. Do not load harvested grapes in areas where animal manure has been stored or spread. Pathogens and heavy metals within the manure could contaminate harvested grapes. 5. Any wine grapes dropped on the ground whilst loading must remain on the ground. Soil contamination can be introduced to the harvested grapes if these grapes are delivered. The use of any chemical (selected botryticides excepted) and fertiliser within 30 days of harvest are not recommended as their use is unlikely to be beneficial to the current crop. Winery permission is required for all applications to the vineyard within 30 days of 7. No rocks or other items to be placed on posts within the vineyard. The rocks could damage harvesting and winery equipment. 8. Genetically modified organisms are not to be used in vineyards. Chemical Storage This is a guide to best practice chemical storage. The actual standard for chemical storage can be obtained from your local department of agriculture/primary industries, or from our office. Site Selection The store must be located at least 15m from the property boundary, 10m from buildings occupied by people or livestock, 5m from watercourses, dams, drainage or sewage lines, 3m from stored flammable materials and well above maximum flood level. The site should preferably be in an open area with low risk to wild-fires, located to have good air circulation, avoid temperature extremes, and near to the tank mixing and filling area. The site must have access to a clean and reliable water supply for tank filling and emergency use. Structure/Construction The building must be structurally sound to wind and weather and have a good roof with no leaks. A fire resistant structure and internal cladding is preferred, with wall and roof insulation to moderate storage temperature. The building should have clear access and outward opening doors. The floor must be impermeable and preferably graded to aid collection of spills and wash down and must be graded or bunded to contain 25% of the total liquid in the store. Some QA schemes may require this to be 110% of the possible store contents. Check that doorways and service entry/exits do not compromise containment. The surface should be non-slip for worker safety. Ventilation must be adequate to prevent build-up of chemical vapours; both lower vents just above the bund and upper vents in the walls or roof are highly recommended. Lighting must be adequate to read labels and to measure out chemicals. Natural light is preferred. Shelving must be sturdy and made of non-absorbent materials. Install any shelves on the coolest side of store and away from direct sunlight, and heat sources. Water supply should be clean, reliable and capable of 15 minutes continuous flow to wash chemical off any part of the body.

24 Chemical Storage continued The store must be lockable and kept locked to prevent unauthorised entry. Windows and vents must be designed to prevent entry by children or others and only authorised staff should have access to store keys. Warning signs are recommended to indicate that the facility is a chemical storage area. If Class 6 and/or Class 8 Dangerous Goods are stored, the Dangerous Substances legislation requires that the appropriate class label sign(s), and a sign prohibiting fire, naked flame and smoking, must be displayed. Equipment Located in Store Equipment to accurately measure the weight or volume of chemical must be appropriate for the job, and the markings must be clear and readable. This equipment may include scales and measurement jugs. Test weights are required to check scales for accuracy. There should be some readily available material and equipment to contain, absorb and decontaminate spilt chemicals. The most basic requirements are a container of absorptive material, e.g. dry soil or kitty litter, a shovel and an empty clean container that can receive chemicals from leaking containers. Pesticide Stock Management All products must be in original package with labels intact. Only registered products should be kept in store. Containers need to be kept closed to prevent accidental spillage. It is recommended to locate herbicides, insecticides and fungicides separately on shelving with powder or granular products above liquid. This recommendation is compulsory in some on-farm QA schemes. Segregation of some incompatible chemicals may be required; check warnings on labelling. Empty containers/packaging awaiting safe disposal must be secure, so allocate a separate storage zone in the store. For drummuster requirements and availability, check with local councils, or visit the drummuster website. Equipment Located Outside but Near the Store Personal protective equipment (PPE e.g. overalls, waterproof pants and coat, gumboots, rubber gloves, respirator, goggles, face shield, PVC apron, hat) should not be located in the store, but should be kept nearby. Clean PPE should be stored separately to equipment that is dirty or awaiting cleaning or disposal. PPE should be appropriate to the chemical being used; refer to the label and MSDS. Fire-fighting equipment should be a dry powder extinguisher mounted near and outside the store. 24

25 25 SAFEGRAPES RESIDUE TESTING SELECTION PROCESS FLOW At the Property Inspection, did any critical requirement receive an unacceptable rating? No At the Property Inspection, were 50 or more penalty points accumulated? No Yes Yes Note: It is expected growers are to be tested at least every 3 years. Every grower is to be tested in vintage 2014 to form a base line. Is the contract a spot buy (annual purchase)? Note: The grower will be liable for payment of the weighbridge residue test only if Accolade s maximum residue limits (MRLs) are exceeded. No Yes Was the grower tested in 2015 or 2016, with no MRL breaches and has continually supplied as a spot buy since? Yes No There will be one sample taken for residue testing for the first 1,000 tonnes of grapes estimated, another sample for estimated tonnages between 1,000 and 2,000 tonnes, and a final sample for more than 2,000 tonnes estimated. Had the grower delivered grapes last season that exceed Accolade Wines MRLs? Yes No Is the spray diary in doubt (i.e. illegible, incorrect calculations, full product names not used, etc.)? Yes No Has an unregistered or banned chemical or chemical not listed in the Accolade Wines spray diary been applied within the vineyard? This may have additional contractual ramifications. No Has a chemical in excess of label rate been applied or not met the label withholding period? Yes Yes Has an applied chemical not met the winery restriction on use? Is this the 2017 vintage? No residue testing required. No No No Was the grower selected for a residue test during harvest but was missed for any reason? No Has the grower been tested in the last 3 seasons? Yes Yes Yes Yes No Grower to be mandatorily selected for targeted residue testing this season. Note: A targeted test is one in which the growers patch has been chosen for a reason as mentioned here.

If you are using a product to control two organisms, e.g. a strobilurin product for Powdery Mildew and Downy Mildew, list both targets in this column. Always record the full trade name, as shown on the label, of the product used e.g. Thiovit Jet, not Thiovit or Sulphur. Include any letters and numbers associated with the trade name e.g. Prosper 500 EC not Prosper. The product must be registered for use on grapevines in your state. Check the restrictions listed on pages The winery restriction overrides the label restriction on any product. This is the amount of registered product you used per 100L that complies with the label rate. This column needs to be completed for fungicide and insecticide sprays. Do not exceed the label rate. An explanation is given on the cover flap. The concentration factor is never less than 1. Concentration factor for wetters and foliar fertilisers is always 1 even if the rest of tank mix has a concentration factor greater than 1. The examples show how foliar sprays and wetters should be recorded in the diary. This column must be completed for all sprays applied. To calculate the amount of product used per hectare use the formula below: Product/ha = Chosen label rate per 100L x CF x Amount of water sprayed per hectare 100 For example: Chosen Thiovit Jet label rate = 550g per 100L Concentration factor (CF) = 2.3 Amount of water sprayed per hectare = 305 L/ha Product per ha = Chosen label rate per 100L x CF x Amount of water sprayed per hectare 100 = 550 x 2.3 x = 3858g or 3.86kg 30 n t

The product must be registered for use on vineyards in your state. Check the restrictions listed on page The winery restriction overrides the label restriction on any product. Unless spot spraying, this column should be left blank for herbicides. Wetter rates should be recorded in this column. The example shows how this column should be completed. Herbicides and wetters always have a concentration factor of 1. Herbicide rates are always given on a sprayed hectare basis (unless spot spraying). You should record the label rate of herbicide you used in this column. To calculate the amount of wetter used per hectare use the formula below: Product/ha = Chosen label rate per 100L x CF x Amount of water sprayed per hectare 100 For example: Chosen Spreadwet 1000 label rate = 10mL/100L Concentration factor (CF) = 1 Amount of water sprayed per hectare = 350L Product per ha = Chosen label rate per 100L x CF x Amount of water per sprayed hectare 100 = 10 x 1 x = 35mL 31 t

(2001) New label directions for spraying - a review of experiences over the past year. Australian grapegrower and winemaker 451, (with permission from the Australian grapegrower and winemaker). Step 1. Theoretical (dilute) spraying volume Canopy size changes throughout the growing season. A range of theoretical (dilute) spray volumes is given for each canopy size. Choose the appropriate theoretical (dilute) volume from the above chart. It must be within the recommended range. For example, if the canopy is a 1m x 1m sprawl the theoretical (dilute) spray volume could be: L/ha or 20-40L/100m The theoretical (dilute) volume you select will depend on the density of the canopy. For dense canopies choose a volume at the top end of the range. Step 2. Amount of water sprayed per hectare This is the volume of spray your canopy spray unit has been calibrated to apply in L/ha (or perhaps L/100m). This figure appears on form 6b, page 16, Step 3. This figure will vary when you change your spray plant setup, i.e. tractor speed, nozzle size, number of nozzles used. Step 3. Concentration factor Concentration factor (CF) = theoretical (dilute) spray volume amount of water sprayed per hectare Example 1 Taking into account the canopy size and density at this time of the year, you decide that the theoretical (dilute) spray volume is 1700L/ha. After calibrating the spray unit you find that the amount of water sprayed per hectare is 600L. Concentration factor (CF) = theoretical (dilute) spray volume amount of water sprayed per hectare = = 2.8 Example 2 Taking into account the canopy size and density, you decide that the theoretical (dilute) spray volume is 500L/ha. After calibrating the spray unit you find that the amount of water sprayed per hectare is 500L.Concentration factor (CF) = theoretical (dilute) spray volume amount of water sprayed per hectare = =1 36
