17 August, 2020
The ASVO is pleased to announce the finalists for the 2020 ASVO Winemaker of the year: Peter Leske, Frank van de Loo and Sam Connew.
The finalists were selected by a committee of ASVO members chaired by 2017 ASVO Winemaker of the Year, Mike Hayes. Hayes said, “the awards delivered an exceptional class of assiduous finalists all shining examples of the extraordinary talent Australia has to offer. The cross section of finalists all developed their own stylistic approach to quality combined with an altruistic approach to research and development. Undoubtably one of the finest selections ever seen in the awards.”
ASVO president Brooke Howell said, “The Australian wine industry is extremely fortunate to have many highly engaged, skilled, professional individuals who are willing to contribute for the greater good of the community. These professionals inspire others to seek out and adopt innovative practices to ensure the longevity of our businesses and industry. The calibre of finalists this year is outstanding, and I congratulate them all on their achievements”
The winners of the ASVO Awards for excellence will be announced on Tuesday November 17.
