It seems appropriate to pen an article shining a light on the success of Australia’s women of wine as we pass International Women’s Day.
Among Australia’s best female winemakers are many who are the creators and hands behind some of my favourite wines.
Names like Liz Heidenreich – the first female winemaker for the Jesuit operation at Sevenhill in the Clare Valley, before making wines under her own name in the Barossa Valley; or Gywn Olsen, who makes the wines for Briar Ridge and Pepper Tree in the Hunter Valley.
