Our Review
Ray and Patrik Jones’ first venture into wine came to nothing: a 1990 proposal for a film about the Australian wine industry with myself (James) as anchorman. In 1999 they took the plunge into making their own wine and exporting it, along with the wines of others. As the quality of the wines has improved, so has the originally zany labelling been replaced with simple but elegant labels. Exports to Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Singapore, Malaysia and China. -JAMES HALLIDAY
