AUS: Wine guru backs call to double price of casks
Apr 12, 2011 6
A LEADING wine industry figure has broken ranks, declaring it's time to adopt a Henry tax review recommendation that would double the price of cask wine and cut more than $100 off the price of a bottle of Grange.
Treasurer Wayne Swan disowned the recommendation on the release of the review, saying he would not change alcohol tax ''in the middle of a wine glut and where there is an industry restructure under way.''
