Jonny and his brother Matt established Mewstone Vineyard in Flowerpot on the banks of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel in 2011. Jonny is the winemaker of the family and after studying in New Zealand, went on to work in wine regions all over the world including Langhorne Creek (South Australia), Central Otago (NZ), Mornington Peninsula (Victoria), Barolo (Italy), the Hunter Valley (New South Wales) and Okanagan Valley (Canada). Heading home to Tasmania, Jonny worked in various roles within the local wine industry, before settling in as the Assistant Winemaker at Moorilla in Hobart for seven years.

The hughes & hughes label is a venture that focuses on sourcing quality grapes from different vineyards throughout Tasmania, this diversification allows Jonny to get creative in his approach to winemaking while bringing together techniques that he has encountered from his world travels.
