Ben Glaetzer - the real story of the prodigal son of Australian shiraz
"The idea is that it's not about those short term credits, it's about people seeing that you have integrity, that you believe in what you're doing, and that no matter what happens along the way, you're going to stick to what you set out to do, which is to make wine that you yourself believe to be good, and to encourage loyalty."
Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front Monthly | more |
