Imagine leaving the sale of one of Australia's most beloved wineries to the flip of a coin?!

Join Master Sommelier Carlos Santos and Angus O'Loughlin as they interview 2021 Winemaker of the year Sarah Crowe for a deep dive into her winemaking style, decision to put all future bottles under screw cap and history of the iconic winery estate.
