You better get your skates on - these wines are going to fly!
- Caroline was the first female winemaker ever to win the coveted, and world famous, Jimmy Watson Trophy - the most prestigious and sought after wine award in Australia while she was paving the way for Wolf Blass. She is arguably the most awarded female winemaker in Australia.

Caroline Dunn was the first female winemaker ever to win the world famous Jimmy Watson Trophy - the most prestigious wine award in Australia.

Based in the heart of Australia's most prolific wine region, Caroline lives and breathes wine. New world winemaking, ancient soils, premium fruit...all roads lead to an amazing treat for Angels!
Nigel Dolan’s legendary status is borne from holding Senior Winemaking positions at Chateau Tanunda, Seppeltsfield and Saltram. He has been awarded the Jimmy Watson Trophy twice - in 1992 and 2003 and there is probably not a Red wine trophy in major Australian shows that Nigel’s wines have not won at least once, including the Brisbane Wine Show’s Stodart Trophy three times! Amazing!
