Tasmanian wine grape growers are headed for a record harvest.Halfway through the vintage conservative estimates put this years yield at more than 8000 tonnes.That will surpasses the previous record set in 2004 and is a huge 60 per cent up on last year's frost affected yield. Executive Officer of Wine Industry Tasmania Stuart Nettlefold says there's all indication are that quality is also good this vintage."It also does give us opportunity to expand into certainly the national market, distributing into other states."There are a number of brands already doing that but I suppose it does pave the way for brands to expand, those that aren't, into the likes of Melbourne, Sydney or the eastern seaboard."
