At the beginning of 2008 we were lucky enough to have a new consulting winemaker join the Stone House Vineyard team.

Born in the Barossa Valley, South Australia, he graduated from Roseworthy Agricultural College in South Australia and has worked extensively in Australia and California in senior winemaking positions, and now resides in California.

As a winemaker of considerable achievements he joins Stone House with the commitment of producing wines of the highest quality and innovation; he believes in obtaining excellence through dedication, focus and understanding of our unique viticultural and enological attributes, assuring Stone House’s continued success.

Oenologist and consultant Michel Rolland says, "He is on my list of great winemakers from around the world.”

Unfortunately, for contractual reasons he has to remain anonymous.
