Cape Jaffa Wines receives silver medal at the 2009 South Australian Tourism Awards
MOUNT BENSON – 9 November 2009: Mount Benson’s founding winery and first fully certified biodynamic winegrower on the Limestone Coast Cape Jaffa Wines (www.capejaffawines.com.au) has received a silver medal in the category of tourism wineries, distilleries and boutique breweries at the 2009 South Australian Tourism Awards.
The award was the result of a 30-page submission completed by the winery detailing their contribution to tourism through an in-depth analysis of their key markets, business plan, financial viability, sustainable practices and innovative approaches.
“The tourism wineries category is always a very competitive one, and the calibre of wineries we were competing against was very high,” says Derek Hooper, general manager of Cape Jaffa Wines. “Being awarded a silver medal in this category is a great honour.
“We congratulate Sinclair’s Gully on their win in this category. Not only have they been able to achieve a truly unique tourism product, they’re also working towards building a sustainable business which resonates with our own goals and aspirations at Cape Jaffa Wines.”
Cape Jaffa Wines received a bronze medal in the same category at last year’s South Australian Tourism Awards.
This award follows Cape Jaffa’s sustainability award win at the 2009 SA Great Regional Awards for the Limestone Coast last month.
