Expertly interweaving artistry and science to create beautiful wine, Glenn simply wants to make the best wine from our land. He is an artist, he is a romantic and he is a scientist. Like a chef, he combines his two passions to create beautiful things. A oenology graduate of Roseworthy College, South Australia, Glenn worked in McLaren Vale and the Barossa before moving to the Awatere Valley, New Zealand as the first winemaker for Vavasour Wines. In 1989 he produced the valley’s first sauvignon blanc. More recently Glenn joined Kiwi Oeno, a high profile winemaking consultancy with clients throughout New Zealand, Northern Italy and Southern France. Glenn is a truly global winemaker but his primary focus remains the Awatere Valley and his pivotal role at Tupari.
