    Event description

Leo Estate), Erena Crowley (Owner, Barwon Heads Cellar), Hilary Fordham (State Manager, Mezzanine Fine Wine), Leanne Altmann (Beverage Director, Trader House) and Sue Hodder (Senior Winemaker, Wynns Coonawarra Estate) – moderated by Sommeliers Australia's Gill Sykes (Wine House).
